Run Along

Run, run, run, run

Boys, boys go dey do dem a tings

Some go promise girls diamonds and rings

Blings, flings and wonderful things

Feeling rather fly, they think they are kings

Kids, grow the hell up

Why you figure say your money go fit buy real love?

Those things, you learn them from TV stuff

There are more important things than where you like to shop

Damn, I get nothing give you

You dey waste my time, I got something I for do

Be like somebody dey call me or something, I for move

Besides, I really no dey feel your grooves

Run along, run along, run along

Run along, run along

Go and find another gyal fi fool

Go and find another gyal fi fool

Run along, run along, run along now

Now, now-now, now, now-now

'Cause I really got no time for you, I got no time for fools

So go on back to school or run along

Run along, run along, run along and get gone

Get gone, get gone

Girls, girls, girls

Some be like sweet pearls

Some too make like they don't get their function in this world

But mind give them the urge

To be constantly on the verge

Of quick hysterics, but the tricks they

Turning bite back and they get burned

Oh, my sister

Why you play that nice young mister?

You chop him money, then you go and get punny

'Til your high heels give you blisters

Oh, sister

Why you do so?

Why you do so?

Run along, run along, run along

Run along, run along

Go and find another gyal fi fool

Go and find another gyal fi fool

Run along, run along, run along now

Now, now-now, now, now-now

'Cause I really got no time for you, I got no time for fools

So go on back to school or run along

Run along, run along, run along and get gone

Get gone, get gone

Bitch, and then there's me

But who be I be another matter you no dey see

I got my own wild idiosyncrasies

Mischievous steez plus the air of mystique

So I speak my mind

And if you no dey check am, baby, that's just fine

I just drink my wine and handle my own business

But this song is not about me

About somebody wey my eye just see

E be like he's so lost at sea

Me can't tell am which way he for take then leave

Run along, run along, run along

Run along, run along

Go and find another gyal fi fool

Go and find another gyal fi fool

Run along, run along, run along now

Now, now-now, now, now-now

'Cause I really got no time for you, I got no time for fools

So go on back to school or run along

Run along, run along, run along and get gone

Get gone, get gone

Now in a way, facts like these are easy

I just have to provide you with the scientific truth as best I can

But views and opinions are different

And this is where you really do have to think of it

And think for yourself

And probably also to talk to other people

Your teachers, your friends, your parents
