Lyrics
Hey, Runner!
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Welcome, let me take you to
Your very own private room
Whatever you need is on the way
From the absurd to the insane
Remember I’m a volunteer
I know your people have people
And I know this should make my day
There’s none with whom I’d rather spend my afternoon
Than with an ego that can fill a room
But still, still all I hear
You better run fast
Get it done even if it takes all night
I don’t know what else you’ve been told, but I’m above that
And if I change my mind, it’ll be alright
It’s not like you’ve got somewhere to be
Run fast
Don’t forget who I am, and I don’t ask twice
While you’re at it, would you mind to read mine?
'Cause I needed that last week, but take your time
It’s not like I’ve got somewhere to be
Go, take a ride on your high horse
And don’t you wait to ask for more
I’ve got an eternity of time to abuse
Never mind, it’s all for you to use
I’m still just a volunteer
You better run fast
Get it done even if it takes all night
I don’t know what else you’ve been told, but I’m above that
And if I change my mind, it’ll be alright
It’s not like you’ve got somewhere to be
Run fast
Don’t forget who I am, and I don’t ask twice
While you’re at it, would you mind to read mine?
'Cause I needed that last week, but take your time
It’s not like I’ve got somewhere to be
I’ve got somewhere to be (I’ll never get there)
And I’ll never get there while you’re stepping on me (stepping on me)
I’m caught beneath your (caught beneath your vanity)
So why do I keep running?
Why do I keep running?
Why do I keep running?)
You better run fast
Get it done even if it takes all night
I don’t know what else you’ve been told, but I’m above that
And if I change my mind, it’ll be alright
It’s not like you’ve got somewhere to be
Run fast
Don’t forget who I am, and I don’t ask twice
While you’re at it, would you mind to read mine?
'Cause I needed that last week, but take your time
It’s not like I’ve got somewhere to be
