Run Like A Villain

Iggy Pop


big dick is a thumbs-up guy
he shot a missile in the sky 
it functioned just as advertised 
until the fire made him cry 
look into it later 
when the dust is clearing off the crater 
run like a villain let the good times roll 
run like a villain to the sugar bowl 
run like a villain cause you can't adjust 
to a saccharine suburb in the mush 
i've got some loving arms around me 
darker than the tombs of Egypt, 
dumber than the crudest fiction, 
buried in a melting coffin 
nights like this appeal to me! 
tracy got an afghan, pedigreed,
prescription shades and designer jeans 
a sony walkman on her head 
all she wants is to be fed 
run, run, run, cause you're soft
run, run, but don't get lost 
the shining moon the dead oak tree 
nights like this appeal to me 
i've got some loving arms around me 
the shining moon the dead oak tree 
nights like this appeal to me 
i've got some loving arms around me 
trying to steal a moment of pleasantry 
in this zzzzzombieee birdhouse 
run, run, run run like a villain 
let the good times roll 
run like a villain to save your soul 
it can't be done i already know 
so i'll run like a villain to the sugar bowl
cause who you are nobody knows 
who you are nobody knows 
you rings on your fingers
