[Silence]
[Arrangement: Upbeat garage rock with jangly guitars, walking bass, handclaps, tambourine, and a driving four-on-the-floor beat. Tempo ~138 BPM. Playful call-and-response vocals throughout.]
[Intro]
[Instrumental: Guitar riff, handclaps, bass groove]
Round and round
(Never found)
Here we go
(Gonna slow down?)
[Verse 1]
Chasing tails
(Leaving trails)
Reading signs
(Changing minds)
One more turn
(Never learn)
Round the bend
(Back again)
[Pre-Chorus]
Let the road
(Let the street)
Move your feet
(To the beat)
Round we go
(Dare say no?)
[Chorus]
Run, run, run
(Runaround)
Run it up
(Run it down)
Turn it up
(Please, more sound!)
Run, run, run
(Runaround)
[Instrumental]
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 2]
Take a chance
(Start to dance)
Lose your place
(Win the race)
Side by side
(Enjoy the ride)
Left or right
(All tonight)
[Bridge]
Where we’re going
(No one knows)
That’s the way
(The story goes)
Every ending
(Starts anew)
Running circles
(Me and you)
[Breakdown]
Run around…
(Turn around…?)
Spin around…
(All around…)
[Final Chorus]
Run, run, run
(Runaround)
Run it up
(Run it down)
Turn it up
(Please, more sound!)
Run, run, run
(Runaround)
Run, run, run
(One more round!)
Keep it rolling
(Don’t back down!)
[Outro]
[Instrumental fade with handclaps and crowd vocals]
Round and round…
(Runaround…)
Round and round…
(Runaround…)
Run, run, run
(… still not done…)
