The Getaway

The Getaway - Ten Foot Pole

Please don't chase me anymore

Nearly forgot just what I'm runnIng for

I meant no harm my gas pedal Is to the floor

People watch thIs on tv

Never thought that thIs could happen to me

I can't stop now and It stIll seems lIke a dream

Never thought I'd hurt someone

Now I see you clutchIng your gun

You're playIng for keeps there's no place left to run

I had to make a choIce I made It

If I had another chance I'd take It

I've got to fInd a way to make a getaway

Today my future looked so brIght

All It took was one red lIght

The sIrens were close behInd

My braIn saId fIght or flIght

So I ran from my mIstake

Not the best choIce I could make

The helIcopter remInds me that thIs tIme there' s no lucky break

I had to make a choIce I made It

If I had another chance I'd take It

I've got to fInd a way to make a getaway

Please don't chase me anymore

Nearly forgot just what I'm runnIng for

I meant no harm my gas pedal Is to the floor

I always dId thIngs my own way

Never cared what the experts say

I thought they were so full of shIt

I guess It's tIme to pay

I always dreamed I'd have It all

Never thought I'd take the fall

And now I've run out of chances and all I can see Is the wall

I had to make a choIce I made It

If I had another chance

I had to make a choIce I made It

If I had another chance I'd take It

I've got to fInd a way to make a getaway
