Story Behind The Song

Typical LA agenda for the wealthy LA (Malibu) types. A little bitter perhaps.

Lyrics

RUN, RUN
words and music copyright 1996, BMI
George Goodridge

Poor little rich girl what have you started
Does the money come from your little green thumb
Did what you wanted, take what you needed
Can I have some

Take on the others, fight like a tiger
Heaven only knows what a body might find
If they come back to take what your after
It's their suicide

Or will you run, run girl
Should you run, could you run
Could you run, run girl
Should you run, will you run

Just what you wanted, more than you needed
Tell all the others they can wait in line
Tell if you knew that you left them bleeding
Every time

Know what you are but do you understand it
Who's that there with his heart in a glass
Take all the others under the covers
Free at last

Or will you run, run girl
Should you run, did you run
Did you run, run girl
Should you run, will you run

Your memory's fading so how come so jaded
How will you choose who will be number one
Could be inclined to and probably resign to

Perfect hair and a tidy little sum
Cherish the danger but love is the stranger
All that matters is where they come from
Kind of pathetic you want and you get it
When the time has come
Will you run

Last train to Clarksville leaving from the station
Hope you can find your ticket to ride
Never understood why you had to fake it
All those lies
Strap 'em to your back till you're almost haunted
Save that face from the rays of the sun
If it turns black right before you make it
Hope it was fun

Or will you run, run girl
Should you run, could you run
Could you run, run girl
Should you run, will you run
