Runaround

Ooh-ooh-ooh, little boy

My baby's always crying
And my baby wants to see me there cry, too
And chain on my heart is going to break
'Cause every tear that falls in here
Is a dime in the jukebox fury

So punch it in (punch it in)
Shake the chain (shake the chain)
Then listen to the song you're playing
Shake the chain, shake the chain

At everything I do
Just enough
Everything I wanted to (just enough)
Everything I put you through (just enough to know)

He don't want me (he don't want me)
Oh, I think he's polarized (I think)
He don't know which way to go
Where would you be otherwise?
Otherwise, you know we could (otherwise you know we could)

Runaround (runaround)
And I could get this anyway (runaround)
I could get this anyway (runaround)
I can get this anyway

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Light goes down
Somebody could break your heart, oh (oh, oh)
Light goes on
You could break somebody's heart, oh (oh, oh)
Chain on my heart is going to break
Every time you try to make me cry
While you listen to it now

Punch it in
Shake the chain
I can't take the tears
I can't take the tears
Shake the chain, shake the chain

At everything I do (just enough)
Everything I wanted to
Just enough
Everything I put you through
Just enough to know (just enough to know)

He don't want me (he don't want me)
Oh, you better wise up, girl (oh)
Best, tell me, you better get smart
You better hide your heart

He's a runaround
And I could get this anyway (runaround)
I could get it anyway (runaround)
I can get this anyway, yeah

Oh, you, you don't want me (you don't want me, oh, you don't want me)
Oh, you, you don't want me (oh, you)
Oh, oh, oh you better wise up, girl
This town, you better get smart
You better hide your heart

He's a runaround
If I can get this anyway (runaround)
But I could get this anyway (runaround)
But I could get this anyway (runaround)
But I could get this anyway (oh, oh, runaround)
And I could get this anyway (way)

(You don't want me, oh, you don't want me)
Oh, you don't want me (oh, you don't want me)
Oh, you don't want me (oh, you don't want me)
Oh, you don't want me (oh, you don't want me)

Take a deep breath and break that chain, ah (ah)
Take a deep breath and break that chain, ah (ah)
Take a deep breath and break that chain, ah (ah)
Take a deep breath and break that chain, ah (ah)
Ah (ah)
