[Intro]
Ready or not!
(Have you forgot?)
Here I come!
(Better run)
[Verse 1]
Running through the backyard
Running through the park
Chasing after daylight
Before it gets dark
[Refrain]
Tag!
(You’re it!)
Come play away today
Tag!
(See me run!)
The fun…
… in gettin’ away
[Verse 2]
Dodging through the corners
Flying down the lane
Turning every sidewalk
Into a runaway train
One hand on your shoulder
Changes everything
Now you’re doing the chasing
And everybody sings
[Pre-Chorus]
Nobody stays “it”
For very long
The game keeps moving
Right along
[Refrain]
Tag!
(You’re it!)
Come play away today
Tag!
(See me run!)
The fun…
… in gettin’ away
[Bridge]
Catch me if you can
(Catch me if you can)
I’m already gone
(Already gone)
Round the tree
(Around the bend)
The chase goes on
(And on and on)
Hey!
(Hey!)
Hey!
(Hey!)
Run!
[Instrumental, Guitar Riff]
[Final Refrain]
Tag!
(You’re it!)
Come play away today
Tag!
(See me run!)
The fun…
… in gettin’ away
Tag!
(You’re it!)
Now it’s your turn to play
Tag!
(The game’s begun!)
The fun…
… is playin’ anyway
(All is won)
[Outro]
Tag!
(You’re it!)
Tag!
(You’re it!)
Come and play away today…
(Hey! Hey! Hey!)
