[Thomas]
Did you get it?
[Constance]
Got it right here. Hang on, I've got to freshen up. I'll be back in a minute…
[Police enter the soiree]
And on the day we come, it's over
Please all keep calm while we perform our vows
That man, an officer, has eyed him
He is a rebel, soldiers, shoot him now
There's a device we have been seeking
And it is in this room, we know
There is a thief, and she has got it
I- What do you mean, she's gone?
Well find her, go!
[Constance]
Run like the hunted
Run like they're coming
Run like the sword will finally fall
Run like the desperate
Your last final minute
Run like the end has come to call
Run like the hours
The days all when counted
Run like they pa**ed while dreamers slept
Run like the fire
The winds of desire
Run if you want to live again
Run, taste the rain
Run from mistakes you've made
Run, run away
Run, and just embrace
Run, the air, the pulse, the pain
Run, run away
[Jackie]
Constance!
[Constance]
Aunt Jaqueline?
[Jackie]
Quick, get in
[Constance]
Aunt Jackie, what are you doing here?
[Jackie]
A dragnet's on the street and your name is its list my sweet
The cops are blowing doors down while they weep
But you, my dear've been busy making pockets light and dizzy
I know the little secrets that you keep
My pals in the resistance caught wind of the existence
Of this dapper device called the MCG
And they hired this thief to swipe it, then you show up, dolled and diapered
Now I know the little secret that you keep
[Constance]
Aunt J, I know you raised me after my folks died, but these days
I've got a gig that's crazy, heavy, sweet
A new name, boyfriend, life, I meant to tell you, but got tied
Oh these little family secrets that we keep
[Jackie]
Your new life, sad to say, the cops are peeling it away
Your name, your place dismantled piece by piece
That thing you took is precious to the cops, hawks and resistance
And they'll string you up and swing you in the streets
There's one way that this goes down, we've got to get you underground
This map is marked and bring that MCG
Down beneath the city, a substation sits all ready
To receive that hot potato that you keep
[Constance]
I don't care about your plan, I only care about my man
When the cops came, he was stuck and still inside
If they find out who he is, he'll be beaten, tortured, k**ed
I could trade this stupid thing to save his life
[Jackie]
Your fella's not important, you forget that there's a war on
There's a greater good of which you now must think
We've worked for years and now we're gonna bring those ba*tards down
Ah these little family secrets that we keep
I will spill a straight admission, your aunt's long since found religion
There's a voodoo cult who meets under the streets
Go underground and find them and they'll help you and they'll guide you
They know the little secrets that you keep
Oh these little family secrets that we keep
Those little family...
Constance, come back!
[Constance]
Run like the hunted
Run like they're coming
Run like the sword will finally fall
Run like the desperate
Your last final minute
Run like the end has come to call
Run like the hours
The days, all when counted
Run like they pa**ed while dreamers slept
Run like the fire
The winds of desire
Run if you want to live again
Run, taste the rain
Run from mistakes you've made
Run, run away
Run and just embrace
Run, the air, the pulse, the pain
Run, run away
[Constance]
Thomas! Thomas!
[Thomas]
Inanna, here I am
[Constance]
Oh, thank God, baby
How did you escape?
[Thomas]
Don't worry now
Do you still have it?
[Constance]
It's right here, now, come let's blow this joint, my dear
Tonight the heist went down
[Thomas]
And on the day we come it's over
I can help you if you just stay calm
There's bigger things here than you realize
I'm sorry, but this must be done
And on this day, the party's over
It's time to wake up, there's a war to win
And if you run, these men will shoot you
[Constance]
This isn't real, this isn't happening
When did they turn you, how long since?
[Thomas]
Just take my hand, I'll help you live
[Constance]
Run, the tears and shame
Run when you've been betrayed
Run, run away
Run when your heart breaks
Run, the pain just slaps your face
Run, run away
Run, taste the tears you trace
Run from mistakes you've made
Run, run away
Run, somewhere far away
Run, run away
