Run around the corner

Fell asleep in the Sun

You had to move into the shade

Before you fire the gun

We got a hunger for destruction

Need someone to bleed

You sealed the deal before the dawn

You let your actions proceed

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

Sooner or later said you know that it's true

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

You think you're so sly

You tried to roll by

You played the safe side

You said will somebody take me

Down town

Another James Brown

You made the same sound

You said will somebody write this down

Down

Fightin' back revenge

You've got you're face to the ground

You make excuses for the madness

You've been hanging around

You built a house up in the trees

So you could see everyone

You set the clock and had a run

You set the clock and had a run

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

Sooner or later said you know that it's true

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

You think you're so sly

You tried to roll by

You played the safe side

You said will somebody take me

Down town

Another James Brown

You made the same sound

You said will somebody write this down

Down

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

Sooner or later said you know that it's true

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you

You think you're so sly

You tried to roll by

You played the safe side

You said will somebody take me

Down town

Another James Brown

You made the same sound

You said will somebody write this down

Down
