Lyrics:

Sit and watch my TV set

What is on? Will make it better (We’ll make it better)

I wanna call and ask, what's up?

Go to dial, but then I stop (Why don't you call?)

To the end, my friend, oh what a lie

Oh, what a lie

If I could pretend, if I could lie

If I could lie

But I can't say

No I can't stay

I run, run, run, run, run away

Get, get, get, get, get away

I run, run, run, run, run away

Get, get, get, get, get away

But I'll be back someday

I'll be back someday

Like to read to you at night

Like to read 'til you feel better (Until you're better)

Now's the time for us to begin

Not the time for us to give in (It's not the time)

To the end, my friend, oh what a lie

Oh what a lie

If I could pretend, if I could lie

If I could lie

But I can't say

No I can't stay

I run, run, run, run, run away

Get, get, get, get, get away

I run, run, run, run, run away

Get, get, get, get, get away

But I'll be back someday

I'll be back someday

Know that feeling when you're cold

How do you make it go away? (How do you make it go away?)

Know that feeling when you're cold

How do you make it go away? (How do you make it go away?)

To the end, my friend, oh, what a lie 

(Lie, lie, lie) Oh, what a lie

If I could pretend, if I could lie 

(Lie, lie, lie) If I could lie

But I can't say

No I can't stay

I run, run, run, run, run away

Get, get, get, get, get away

I run, run, run, run, run away

Get, get, get, get, get away

But I'll be back someday

I'll be back someday

But I'll be back someday

I'll be back someday
