We met at the party tonight (and I told you)
Girl you're so cool and out of sight (and you know it)
Your leather jacket and weasel pin,
Oh girl when you out again?
You really really make my head spin.
I asked is that guy your boyfriend (and you told me)
Its just some dude, I don't know him (and you like me)
He show looks and I'm getting scared,
You never say I should be a wimp,
But now it's just that I'm outta here.
I gotta run run run real fast.
I even gotta run run run real fast.
I even gotta run run run real fast.
Your boyfriend's gonna kick my ass.
He said I met her (something) (his girlfriend)
I didn't know he was for real (but he meant it)
I didn't mean to make a scene,
I got no luck romantically,
And now this dude wants to fight me.
I gotta run run run real fast.
I even gotta run run run real fast.
I even gotta run run run real fast.
I should have known it'd never last.
Things got kind of crazy when I ran into his friend.
He took my by the collar and punched me in the head.
Blood was spilling everywhere, and now I'm official broke.
Hanging out in the mental ward (something)
I gotta run run run real fast.
I even gotta run run run real fast.
I even gotta run run run real fast
Your boyfriends gonna kicks my ass.
I gotta run run run real fast.
I even gotta run run run real fast.
I even gotta run run run real fast
I should have known it'd never last
