Running Round The Town

[Verse 1]

Well it starts and it ends in 25 minutes

I met a man down in Waterloo

Casual dressed to impress I guess

The women that he wants to know

It's betrayal on the South West rail that prevailed

Had a lot to do it too

Young men I know went toe to toe

Over young girl that he knew

[Verse 2]

Well she starts in the park with a heavy heart

And waited 'til her lips turned blue

Waiting in show, she blamed it on the snow

That fell into a bag in your shoe

Said the cocaine fast lane has taken my old flames

And now its taken my new

Well I don't blame no game players made their own names

Now I'm blaming you

[Chorus]

Call on me when your heart breaks down

I'm never too busy to come out running round the town

So call on me when you need to be found

Never too busy to come out running round the town

[Verse 3]

As it starts getting dark we hear the dogs bark

I guess bugalug Bill's been killed

And as sharp as his wit Danny's never been kissed

By the girls who live up on a hill

He says cigarette butts bad luck like the robber

I don't think I'll ever feel

Accepted, expensive and looking so rejected

Is all I know how to do

[Chorus]

Call on me when your heart breaks down

I'm never too busy to come out running round the town

So call on me when you need to be found

Never too busy to come out running round the town

[Verse 4]

He said when I'm gone will things carry on

The same as they ever do

Jumping red lights, racing Saturday nights

Into Sunday afternoons

Getting high as the sky while the rumours fly

TV in the living room

Shows bombs getting dropped and people getting shot

In lands that he never knew

[Chorus]

Call on me when your heart breaks down

I'm never too busy to come out running round the town

So call on me when you need to be found

Never too busy to come out running round the town
