Pumped Up Kicks
Foster The PeopleRobert's got a quick
He'll look around the
He won't tell you his
He's got a cigarette
Hanging out his
He's a cowboy
Yeah he found a six-shooter gun
In his dad's closet,
in the box of fun
I don't even know
But he's coming for you,
yeah he's coming for you
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
faster than my bullet
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
faster than my bullet
Daddy a long day
He be coming home ,
and he's coming home late
And he's me a surprise
'Cause dinner's in the
and it's packed in
I've waited for a long time
Yeah the sleight of my
is now a quick-pull
I reason with my cigarette
Then say, "Your hair's on ,
you must've lost your , yeah?"
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
faster than my bullet
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
faster than my bullet
Run, run, run, run, ru-ru-ru-run, run, run
Ru-ru-ru-run, run, run, run
Ru-ru-ru-run, run, run, run, run, run
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
faster than my bullet
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
faster than my bullet
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
faster than my bullet
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run,
faster than my bullet
