[Verse 1] Business calls me Trouble down the waterfront You know, I tried to But now I'm running out of lies It's a clear view When all you are is getting paid No more favors I know what we can do about it [Chorus] I think I'd better run, run, run, run [x2] You didn't catch me falling Falling falling falling falling Falling falling falling [Verse 2] Contradictions Get me everything I want I'll let you know But I think it's going to take a while It's a clear view No one's waiting at the door A million letters
They couldn't make me change my mind [Chorus] [Verse 3] How you want it to be Sitting by the waterfront I should be drifting Far enough to reach the shore It's a clear view Don't you underestimate me No more flavors I know I can live without it [Chorus] [Bridge] If you got to play the game You got got to do it well [Outro] I think I'd better run, run, run, run And leave those things for someone else But I like it I don't even care If you got to play the game You got to do it well
