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


Chorus:
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


Chorus


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 sh*t
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


Chorus
