Robert's got a quick hand
He'll look around the room, he won't tell you his plan
He's got a rolled cigarette, hanging out his mouth he's a cowboy kid
Yeah he found a six shooter gun
In his dads closet hidden in a box of fun things, and I don't even know what
But he's coming for you, yeah he's coming for you
"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run, outrun my gun…"
"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet."
"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run, outrun my gun…"
"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet."
Daddy works a long day
He be coming home late, yeah he's coming home late
And he's bringing me a surprise
‘Cause dinner's in the kitchen and it's packed in ice
I've waited for a long time
Yeah the slight of hand is now a quick pull trigger
I reason with my cigarette
And say your hair's on fire, you must have lost your wits, yeah
"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run, outrun my gun…"
"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet."
"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run, outrun my gun…"
"All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet."
