Running Song
I'm gonna run to the river alone 'cause I don't want people to see
I get so embarrassed, when I run, I can't breathe
And when I'm by the water and there's no-one there but me
I'll stand and fill my lungs up and I'll walk back home for tea
Now I don't like my stomach, my mother says it's round
I try to run it off but when I run my breath runs out
Oh, mother, I am flattered that my hunger makes you proud
But I don't want this hunger if it puts me in the ground
Describe what I look like 'cause I can't really tell
I'm told I look my best when I feel a bit unwell
And it really gets me down, this idea that you sell
That I can't afford to taste it so I'll settle for the smell
I'll say something ironic that I was never told
I cover up my body when it fits into the mould
See, no-one ever warned me that skinniness is cold
So I don't think I'll take skinny past these 22 years old
I get so embarrassed, when I run, I can't breathe
And when I'm by the water and there's no-one there but me
I'll stand and fill my lungs up and I'll walk back home for tea
Now I don't like my stomach, my mother says it's round
I try to run it off but when I run my breath runs out
Oh, mother, I am flattered that my hunger makes you proud
But I don't want this hunger if it puts me in the ground
Describe what I look like 'cause I can't really tell
I'm told I look my best when I feel a bit unwell
And it really gets me down, this idea that you sell
That I can't afford to taste it so I'll settle for the smell
I'll say something ironic that I was never told
I cover up my body when it fits into the mould
See, no-one ever warned me that skinniness is cold
So I don't think I'll take skinny past these 22 years old
