He was on the outside,
But it was not his own choice.
The city schemes had swallowed his dream
And they silenced his voice.
Get away, get away, get away,
Get away, get away, get away, get away,
Run.
She was on the inside,
Looking for a way to be free.
She was doing nine to life,
Working for the company.
Get away, get away, get away,
Get away, get away, get away, get away,
There's the place, the rat, the race.
There's the place we have no face.
Get away, get away, get away,
Get away, get away, get away, get away,
Run, run, run.
There is an end to adversity,
An end to the company.
A time and place where you and me,
Where I can laugh and you'll be free.
There'll be no more outside or inside,
To keep us apart.
No more outside or inside,
To keep us apart.
There's the place, the rat, the race.
There's the place we have no face.
There's the place, the rat, the race.
There's the place we have no face.
I state my case.
Get away, get away, get away,
Get away, get away, get away, get away.
