(robert palmer)<br><br>Johnny's always running around<br>Trying to find certainty<br>He needs all the world to confirm<br>That he ain't lonely<br>Mary counts the walls<br>Knows he tires easily<br><br>Johnny thinks the world would be right<br>If it could buy truth from him<br>Mary says he changes his mind more than a woman<br>But she made her bed<br>Even when the chance was slim<br><br>Johnny says he's willing to learn<br>When he decides he's a fool<br>Johnny says he'll live anywhere<br>When he earns to time<br>Mary combs her hair<br>Says she should be used to it<br>Mary always hedges her bets<br>She never knows what to think<br>She says that he still acts<br>Like he is being discovered<br>Scared that he'll be caught<br>Without a second thought<br>Running around<br><br>Johnny feels he's wasting his breath<br>Trying to talk sense to her<br>Mary says he's lacking a real<br>Sense of proportion<br>So she combs her hair<br>Knows he tires easily<br><br>Johnny's always running around<br>Trying to find certainty<br>He needs all the world to confirm<br>That he ain't lonely<br>Mary counts the walls<br>Says she should be used to it<br><br>Johnny's always running around<br>Running around
