Phoenix - Run Run Run Lyrics






Business calls me
Trouble down the waterfront
You know, I tried to
But now i'm running outta lies
It's a clear view
When all you are is gettin' paid
No more favors
I know what we can do about it

I think I'd better run, run, run, run
I think I'd better run, run, run, run
You didn't catch me fallin'
Fallin' fallin' fallin' fallin'
Fallin' fallin' fallin'

Contradictions
Get me everything i want
I'll let you know
But i think it's gonna take a while
It's a clear view
No one's waiting at the door
A million letters
They couldn't make me change my mind

I think I'd better run, run, run, run
I think I'd better run, run, run, run
You didn't catch me fallin'
Fallin' fallin' fallin' fallin'
Fallin' fallin' fallin'

How you want it to be
Sittin' by the waterfront
I should be drifting
Far enough to reach the shore
It's a clear view
Don't you underestimate me
No more flavors
I know I can live without it

I think I'd better run, run, run, run
I think I'd better run, run, run, run
You didn't catch me fallin'
Fallin' fallin' fallin' fallin'
Fallin' fallin' fallin'
(If you got to play the game
you got got to do it well)

I think i'd better run, run, run, run
And leave those things for someone else
But i like it
I don't even care
If you got to play the game
You got to do it well

  34. d.... ....

    It's kind of embarrassing that other countries speak English so well that I didn't even realise this band were French. This is the kind of awesome shit that makes me wanna get my shamefully monolingual ass in gear. Great song btw

    d.... ....

    +dalesyp01 Just to reassure you, most french people don't speak english that well or at all. It would be awesome if everybody spoke a bunch of languages so we could all speak how we want to :D

    d.... ....

    I'm French and had no idea Phoenix were French until I read this comment.

    d.... ....

    Shame on u

    d.... ....

    yeah I live Christian in a Buddha context but would prefer to be Buddhist in a Christian context

  35. P.... C....

    The OC!!!

  36. B.... G....

    Kto od Włodka? :D

    B.... G....

    @Bali RC haha, ale muzyka naprawde niezła, kojarzy mi się z grami typu Dave Mirra BMX :D

    B.... G....

    ja zacząłem oglądać The OC xd

    B.... G....

    @Mateusz Wiacek j n

  37. M.... T....

    sooo sweet :-) i like, please play a concert in cologne / germany, not far from paris. in location called "werkstatt"     köln ehrenfeld

  38. E.... F....

    This song is amazing.

  39. M.... D....

    Radiohead Paranoid android at the start!!!

    M.... D....

    Mark Davis ummm....your dumb....

    M.... D....

    Mark Davis tienes mucha razon! 😱

    M.... D....

    I'm looking for a song that has a video where a man with blond hair, wavy and almost long that is walking on the road at night taking steps on the yellow line of the road, he is moving his hips and a car is illuminating the street.

    M.... D....

    Anyway, Radiohead stole this chord progression to the great Pretty Things (hear the song "In the Square").
    The Pretty Things made two of the 50 best albums in rock history : "S.F. Sorrow" and "Parachute".

    M.... D....

    Ha Melody....

  40. F.... F....

    This could've been a Massive Attack song. Too bad they didn't continue with this kind of work, but I guess pop is what gets the band making money and being succesfull on a larger scale!

    F.... F....

    Shut up, now Phoenix do what they want to do, they are not doing it for money.

    F.... F....

    It's incredible how people think trying to make a living from your music is a bad thing.

    F.... F....

    @Louis Roger It seems like the difference between being original and selling out is whether or not the speaker likes a band's new direction rather than bands going commercial. 

    F.... F....

    Couldn't agree more.

  41. A.... Y....

    i think i'd better run, run run, aux champs-elysees, aux champs-elysees

  42. F.... G....

    j’adhère complètement ! :)

  43. D.... R....

    I really like this song.

  44. r.... ....

    can't believe it's already 4 years since i first heard this song and then of this band. heard it when i was at Uni in my first year in the SU. hadn't heard of them before but loved this song so just had to look them and more of their music up and there after i became a fan.

  45. B.... S....

    A visual and aural delight. Thanks!

  46. a.... n....

    RUN FOR WATT ??
    RUN FOR GOD.OK

  47. G.... D....

    Looks like 12:51 from The Strokes. I Like ittt <3

  48. m.... ....

    What album is this from? I only know them from their third album on. First two is hard to find..

  49. W.... L....

    I had that EXACT same thought. The chords are similar I think, and the guitar sounds almost the same.

  50. i.... ....

    Coz you were probably high listening this song.

  51. p.... ....

    so chill

  52. N.... W....

    This song remember me Jonquil-Run

  53. t.... ....

    got here from a porn

  54. E.... C....

    the video doesn't go together with the song in my opinion. Visuals are to dynamic for this song.

  55. F.... T....

    Indeed. It's quite obvious. Maintenant, il leur reste à écrire des textes à la hauteur de Gainsbourg !

  56. b.... ....

    0:12 holycrap! I'm listening to radio head

  57. T.... J....

    Possibly another french influence. Check out Serge Gainsbourg - Ballade de Melody Nelson

  58. I.... ....

    This is their greatest song. It's just so catchy!

  59. T.... ....

    I have a new assignment for you. 12 more people disliked. You know what to do. Don't fail me.

  60. F.... F....

    the guitar, at a very begining, sounds like radiohead.

  61. B.... P....

    Now it's 35. You need a SPAS 12 =D

    B.... P....

    Bruno Passarela Bruno are you a good or a bad person?

  62. z.... ....

    lol ne penses tu pas que t aller trop loin ? xD

  63. s.... s....

    ahhhh so good

  64. N.... Z....

    bieber songs aren`t better than Phoenix`s

  65. A.... Z....

    i hate the fucking comments about bieber, life goes on, get over it

  66. a.... ....

    35 people better run.. because i'm coming with my 9 milimeter GUN ;)
    Rhyme Complete!

  67. I.... ....

    @PoisonedJuice OMG you're sooo right ! The beginning of the song made me thinking of Paranoid Android too ! Radiohead fucked our minds ahah :)

  68. P.... ....

    Why does it remind me of Paranoid Android from Radiohead?

  69. t.... t....

    justin bieber really suck infront of them.fuck him

  70. r.... ....

    Nice melody. I hope Justin Bieber will rearange it one day and make it listenable.

    r.... ....

    rozwaznyiromantyczny fck u dearest

  71. J.... ....

    c qui les 33 troufions qui aiment pas?!!!

  72. B.... ....

    Messi?

  73. T.... T....

    @MrDavidiosoccer Is there some kind of macro that automaticly post a comment like that ? Cause it's at least the 1000th time I see that kind of comment. You're nothing original sir.

  74. I.... ....

    it sounds like brainstorm ! ?

  75. R.... ....

    @lizerkeanu Omg I was just about to type that.

  76. R.... ....

    When the song started I thought it was Radiohead.

  77. H.... K....

    Whoa!! This song is cool!!! But... what does this have to do with Justin Bieber???

  78. l.... ....

    the intro sounds like radiohead

  79. �.... ....

    same top comments about Justin or dislikes, it gets old.

  80. a.... ....

    mmmmmm.
    french boys.

  81. f.... ....

    @SupaGansta 9mm in your pants? im sorry mate...

  82. M.... ....

    ahem, they may be french but what language are they singing in? i think we all know who really won...

  83. g.... ....

    @fabbadeaii
    Night Noise Team has a very similar approach, more disco but very efficient, especially "You Won", but they play it more rock live.

  84. g.... ....

    yes, Phoenix, Daft Punk and the french thing, "Night Noise Team - You Won" as well is a killer french funk tune

  85. f.... ....

    great tune, so underated, similar style as
    night noise team - you won
    which we love too

  86. R.... ....

    Thank God for FRENCH music.

  87. A.... M....

    God these guys are going far
