Charlotte Sometimes - Pumped Up Kicks lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Robert's got a quick hand

He'll look around the room,

He won't tell you his plan.

He's got a rolled cigarette

Hanging out his mouth

He's a cowboy kid

Yeah, he found a six-shooter gun

In his dad's closet in a box of fun things

I don't even know what

But he's coming for you, yeah, he's coming for you

(Chorus)

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks

You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun x4

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks

You'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet

(Verse)

Daddy works a long day

He'll be coming home later, yeah, he's coming home late

And he's bringing me a surprise

Because dinner's in the kitchen and it's packed in ice

I've waited for a long time

Yeah, the slight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger

I reason with my cigarette and say your hair's on fire

You must have lost your wits, yeah!

(Chorus x2)

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks

You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun x4

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks

You'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet
