Lyrics

C'mon

Come on

Come on

Come on

When nothing's funny it gets easy to laugh

At the drop of a hat or a bomb

When someone's screaming it's hard to ignore

Like the shot of a gun, come on

Let's run to a place, somewhere the party never ends

Let's run till there's no way to go on, come on

Can't you hear the sirens blowing?

Can't you hear them call?

Can't you see the lasers probing

Brighter than the sun?

Let's run

Come on

Come on

Come on

Come on

Come on

Come on

Let's run from a promise that could never be kept

Let's run or it's sure to chase us down

Well come on, let's run

Come on, let's run

Come on, let's run

Can't you hear the sirens blowing?

Can't you hear them call?

Can't you see the lasers probing

Brighter than the sun?

Well come on

Come on

Come on

Come on

When no one's laughing you can bet they've been paid

Not to find out what's going on

When something's funny there's a feeling you get

It's the grip of a threat, come on

Let's run to a place, somewhere the party never ends

Let's run till there's no way to go on, come on

Let's run from a promise that could never be kept

Let's run or it's sure to chase us down

Well come on, let's run

Come on, let's run

Come on, let's run

Come on, let's run

Come on, let's run
