Running in Place Lyrics

All these people on a first name basis

New kids on the block

I think the neighbors know

I think they're onto us

I think they're calling the cops

I'm never gonna shave

I'm never gonna cut my hair

All the money I could save

And buy a recliner chair

Kicking back like a deadbeat dad

Leather jacket and my stained sweatpants

These days you can't have no plans

I guess I'll live like that

Oh, I know

I missed your call

So it goes

It's gone

I'm running in place

I wore the grass to the ground

I need a little space

And I need someone to help me out

I need you, baby

Before it all falls down

And I hope it's not a waste

All this time running in place

I could literally die in the register line

Or a gun from a white blood defender

I am going outside just to simulate life

Feel the camera shine

But I'm never gonna stray too far

And break your heart

I'll see you in an hour tops

And all I want's to clear my thoughts

So you know I'll be right back

Oh, I know

I missed your call

So it goes

It's gone

I'm running in place

I wore the grass to the ground

I need a little space

And I need someone to help me out

I need you, baby

Before it all falls down

And I hope it's not a waste

All this time running in place
