Lyrics

Annie was a curious girl
She hoped to travel the world
Explore under every stone
And if something did catch her eye
She'd always peer in and pry
She couldn't leave it alone
Well, curiosity, as they say
Eventually one day
Led to the death of the cat
And if she really knew what was best
She would've gave it a rest
Before she came across something she'd regret
Annie grabbed her new leather cap
Her trusty, weathered old map
And made her way into town
Snuck in Mr. Willowby's store
So she could go and explore
But something was going down
Well, Willowby was in the back
And plotting out an attack
That would take over the world
But just then, she made a loose floorboard creak
He spotted her and he shrieked
"Hey, you there, this is no place
For little girls!"
Run, girl, run! Run as fast as you can
There's a crazed shopkeep and you're a threat to his plan
Run, girl, run! 'Cause this grocer's gone mad
Watch out 'cause
These are mechanical man
Made out of frank and beans cans
So run as fast as you can
Or you'll be dead
Willowby had worked all his life
With only sorrow and strife
Leaving him bitter and chained
He felt that he deserved some respect
He dreamt the world would erect
A monument in his name
So, he spent all his nights and his days
In his shop toiling away
With just the things in the store
So he made an army of drones
From pots and pans and hambones
And other scraps from the refrigerator
Willowby knew sweet, little Anne
Would surely ruin his plan
And so she had to be stopped
Summoning his minions of merch
He ordered them to go search
And find the girl in the shop
Well, hiding in the dairy case
Dear little Annie's heart raced
The girl was frozen with fear
But just then
She looked up from her milk crate
Preparing to meet her fate
One of the robots said "Sir, she's over here!"
Run, girl, run! Run as fast as you can
There's a crazed shopkeep and you're a threat to his plan
Run, girl, run! 'Cause this grocer's gone mad
Watch out 'cause
These are mechanical man
Made out of frank and beans cans
So run as fast as you can
Or you'll be dead
Run!
Run, girl, run! Run as fast as you can
There's a crazed shopkeep and you're a threat to his plan
Run, girl, run! 'Cause this grocer's gone mad
Watch out 'cause
The robot age has begun
Humanity will be done
So to survive you gotta
Run, run, run, run, run!
