lyrics
It was down on the street as midnight chimed,
The night had flashed a short circuit line,
I got caught in between,
Desire and defeat all the time,
I spoke to a man I vaguely knew,
Who said take care to care what you do,
'Cos the riot police are cutting through,
And they ain't gonna make an exception of you,
You better run run,
Before the hounds come,
Some fun when your down on one knee,
Run run before the hounds come,
Beer junkies out baiting the cops,
First with words and later with rocks,
So out came the guns the truncheons,
And all of the stops,
Wildfire panic when there aren't any rules,
Just run, run, run tonight is for fools,
Ladies leave your peacock boys,
Or you might not be aware of the noise,
You better run run,
Before the hounds come,
Some fun when your down on one knee,
Run run before the hounds come,
Tired eyes, tear gas, blood on the pavement,
Never did I see such a mess,
Tired eyes, tear gas, blood on the pavement,
I'm going back to my room to rest,
I’m gonna better run run,
Before the hounds come,
Some fun when your down on one knee,
Run run before the hounds come,
You better run, run, run, run, run,
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run.
