Fuck And Run Lyrics

Artist: Liz Phair
Album: Exile In Guyville

I woke up alarmed
I didn't know where I was at first
Just that I woke up in your arms
And almost immediately I felt sorry
'Cause I didn't think this would happen again
No matter what I could do or say
Just that I didn't think this would happen again
With or without my best intentions
And whatever happened to a boyfriend
The kind of guy who tries to win you over?
And whatever happened to a boyfriend
The kind of guy who makes love 'cause he's in it?

And I want a boyfriend
I want a boyfriend
I want all that boring old shit like letters and sodas
Letters and sodas

You got up out of bed
You said you had a lot of work to do
But I heard the rest in your head
And almost immediately I felt sorry
'Cause I didn't think this would happen again
No matter what I could do or say
Just that I didn't think this would happen again
With or without my best intentions

And I want a boyfriend
I want a boyfriend
I want all that stupid old shit like letters and sodas

And I can feel it in my bones
I'm gonna spend another year alone
It's fuck and run, fuck and run
Even when I was seventeen
Fuck and run, fuck and run
Even when I was twelve

And I can feel it in my bones
I'm gonna spend my whole life alone
It's fuck and run, fuck and run
Even when I was seventeen
Fuck and run, fuck and run
Even when I was twelve

You almost felt bad
You said that I should call you up
But I knew much better than that
And almost immediately you felt sorry
'Cause you didn't think this would happen again
No matter what you could do or say
Just that you didn't think this would happen again
Without or without your best intentions

And whatever happened to a girlfriend
The kind of chick who tries to win you over?
And whatever happened to a girlfriend
The kind of chick who makes love 'cause she's in it?

And you want a girlfriend
You want a girlfriend
You want all that boring old shit like letters and sodas
Letters and sodas
Letters and sodas
Letters and sodas

why.

Where did you get those lyrics? What's with the last two paragraphs? They're not even in the actual song.

by Oi. on 8/9/2008 10:24am
Those lyrics are from Liz Phair's 'solo project', Girly Sound.

It's a demo, effectively.

And it's not wrong; it's magic.

this is a good song

by Megan on 9/12/2008 12:47pm

Of course those lyrics are right, do your damn homework. It's in those paragraphs that she lets you in on the vulnerable side. This song is genius, as is Liz Phair. If only more artists were like her...

jesse lacy is the only one who can actually make this song sound good

by Mike Hunt on 7/7/2009 5:36pm
Twelve??? Scary!!!

by jesse lacey can suck a dick on 8/13/2009 4:26am
OOOOH you're RIGHT, gage, we're lucky some man backed by some men managed by some men came in and covered this track because it was just PURE SHIT when the woman made it. hot damn. so glad i saw your comment, i was under the clearly mistaken impression that a woman artist with truly great lyrics could do something with heart and soul and that would be impressive. god, you really shed some light. thanks dude!

Yes 12. I'm 30 and don't think I'll ever know anything else. It's like a broken record that will never end. There is no place called purgatory, you just come back to earth and serve your time here.

my history

Only a straight up skank is giving it up at age 12. She deserves no better than getting used.

by Satya on 2/19/2012 12:30pm
Hi this is satya i want a boy friend for fucking any body like then send reply only hyderabad satyasa@ymail.com

by Karrie In Kamloops on 3/31/2012 11:15pm
The fact that she was twelve is disturbing. Nobody chooses to be a SKANK at 12. I bet it wasn't a 12 year old boy humping her.SICK and SAD.

lol slut shamers

by Contempt on 10/12/2012 12:51pm
Good Lord! All of you imbeciles getting so worked up over song lyrics.

You should all get out more often.
