Lyrics:
Gonna run home,
I'm gonna run on your love
You say you want me, yeah,
Ain't gonna warn you (warn you)
Oh, no!

I'll be a big man,
An up-and-coming young man
There'll be no place for you
Don't wanna hurt you (hurt you)
Oh well!

And as a young man,
Such an angry young man
I'd pace the hallway floors,
Not understanding (standing)

Oh, no
'Cause you told him so,
He thought he'd have it all for himself, oh, no
That's not the way it goes!

[Guitar solo]

Look at me, man,
I'm an illustrated man
I'm like a human torch,
Don't wanna harm you (harm you)
Oh, no!

Look at me, man,
Now I'm a motivated man
All my systems are go,
I'm gonna break through (break through)

Oh, no
'Cause you told him so,
He thought he'd have it all for himself, oh, no
That's not the way it goes!

Gonna run home,
I'm gonna run on your love
You say you want me, yeah,
Ain't gonna warn you (warn you)

Oh, no
I shoulda told her so,
She thought she'd have it all for herself, oh, no
That's not the way it goes!

[Guitar solo to end]
