The Getaway Songtext
von Ten Foot Pole

Please don′t chase me anymore!
I nearly forgot just what I'm running for, I meant no harm
My gas pedals 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 and 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
And 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
I nearly forgot just what I′m running for, I meant no harm
My gas pedals to the floor
I always do 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'd make a get away)
I had to make a choice I made it
(Make a get away)
If I had another chance I′d take it
(Make a get away)
I've got to find a way to make a getaway
