You came around the corner in your big black car
And the light danced, on your windscreen
Blind behind you huge dark glasses
You slipped a smile that coulda killed a cat
You said to me 'you shoulda run me down'
I had to agree, I had to agree
Cause we've been through hell to be standing here
On this dusty road. with a burned out flute, oh!
And I got in that car of yours
It wasn't me you were making love to
You looked at me, and still you smiled
And I got the information 'I should be silent'
(Shoulda run me down
Shoulda run me down)
I want you and you, you don't want me
So why-y-y
Hang onto
Something, that's dying?
I think it's sick the way you talk to your car
But you won't ever talk to me
(Shoulda run me down)
There's no limit to your actions
Why won't you let me join them?
(Shoulda run me down
Run me down)
Oh, I want you and you, you don't want me
So why-y-y
Hang onto
Something, something that's dying?
Come on boys, dump the car
Set another round, burn the bar
Forget the past, forget the future
Collapse into a drunken stupor
Run me down, you shoulda run me down
(You shoulda run me down)
Run me down, you shoulda run me down
(Shoulda run me down)
I wanna see it! I wanna hear it! I wanna live it!
(You shoulda run me down)
Feel better, but taste my blood!
(You shoulda run me down
You shoulda run me down
Shoulda run me down)
