Arrogant Worms - I Ran Away lyrics

rate me

I remember back when I was still in school

These bullies always picked on me, they called me a fool

They knocked me on the ground!

They rubbed dog poop in my ears!

They kicked me, they punched me,

They said, "Come and fight you wimp!"

(What'd you do??!!)

I faked I had an injury then I ran away

I ran away, I ran away

Danger stared me in the face and I ran away

The children always laughed at me after that day

When I said I tore my ACL and I ran away

I was playing one day in my backyard

When I made the perfect snowball, round and smooth and hard

I spotted nasty Ted Jablonski!

I let fly the perfect snowball!

It smashed the neighbour's windshield!

He came out and said, "Who the hell did that?!"

(What'd you do??!!)

I pointed at my sister and then I ran away

I ran away, I ran away

Danger stared me in the face and I ran away

My sister was grounded for three years and a day

So I said she was adopted and then I ran away

I was walking with my girlfriend one night

Two guys were sitting on a bench, they pointed at her and said,

"She's a fat, ugly tramp!"

"She smells like peanut butter!"

"She's a loser!"

"She's pedantic!"

"She's a mediocre soccer player!"

My girlfriend said, "Make them stop!"

(What'd you do??!!)

I dumped my girlfriend on the spot then I ran away

I ran away, I ran away

Danger stared me in the face and I ran away

The honour of my woman was on the line that day

So I told my girlfriend I was gay and I ran away

I was walking by myself last week

When the devil himself appeared in front of me

He had fire all around him!

He smelled like a burning tire dump!

He opened his mouth, he pointed at me and he said,

"Mike, you're next!"

(What'd you do??!!)

I came up to the devil!

I poked the devil on the shoulder!

I said, "Look over there," and then I ran away.

I ran away, I ran away

Danger stared me in the face and I ran away

I'm hoping that the devil smokes two packs a day

'Cause my day of reckoning is here and I ran away

I ran away, I ran away

Danger stared me in the face and I ran away

Whenever I was challenged I collapsed like a souffle

But I'm still alive to sing this song 'cause I ran away

Oh yes I ran

(oh yes he ran)

Oh yes I ran

(oh yes he ran)

Oh yes I ran

(oh yes he ran)

Oh yes I ran

I ran away!
