Hit & Run

Too many times have I trembled with terror
Entertaining the thought that I soon would be dead
So many instances seeing a vision
Of an SUV rolling right over my head

It's not unusual nowadays
It's not a strange situation to dread
It seems inevitable that someday soon
I'm gonna find myself smashed to the road
Just like a soggy slice of bread

'Cause even though I got the right-of-way
It looks like you're just gonna keep right on coming anyway

You're gonna run
You're gonna run run run
You're gonna run run run me over
Me over
Me over
Me over
Me

When I was younger, I was helplessly anxious
About crossing the road sans a comforting hand
Now I am older and I'm on medication
But my life hasn't changed in the way that I'd planned

'Cause all the cars grew up with me
Hummers and Range Rovers cover the land
My future self in my head looks like a mushy pile of
Pumpkin puree that's just waiting to be canned

Even though you've seen me plain as day
Looks like you're just gonna go on and kill me anyway

You're gonna run
You're gonna run run run
You're gonna run run run me over
Me over
Me over
Me over
Me
You're gonna run run run
You're gonna run run run me over
Me over
Me over
Me over

I see no surefire solution
No possibility catches my eye
People don't care about death or pollution
When it's so much easier to never bother trying
And to just ignore the butterflies that are frying on their grills
Zzt!

Maybe you'd tell me that I'm melodramatic
But I much prefer that to your lack of concern
Maybe if you had a lifestyle less static
And less high on the smell from the rubber you burn

You could slow down for a second
Sample the simple sensation of being
Sweep out the shadows and soak up the sun
And you might find yourself seeing what has been there all along

And if your sights are still set on a thrill
How about a bike race down the city's steepest hill?

You're gonna run
You're gonna run run run
You're gonna run run run me over
Me over
Me over
Me over
Me

Not if I run
Not if I run run run you over
You over
You over
You over
You over
You over you
Firsht
