Psychedelic Furs, The - Run And Run Lyrics
Go on, get Tarzan
Go on, get Jane
Go on, get Superman
Go on, get Lois Lane
She's got a gun
Nothing goes on all the time
And she thinks it's fun
Come on, run, run, run, run away
Come on, run away, come on
Run, run, run, run away
Come on, run away
Doorbell plays Beethoven
Yesterday's there
And I fall on the floor
Practicing makeup
She laughs at us all
Hey, look at you
She's seen it all before
Come on, run, run, run, run away
Come on, run away, come on
Run, run, run, run away
Come on, run away, come on
Run, run, run, run away, come on
Run away, come on
Run, run, run, run away
Come on, run away
I'm having this party
So come now please
It's an open house, girl
But no games with keys
No jokes in blank humor
No lines in blank verse
It couldn't get much worse
There's heroes and villains
Ma B. and her boys
Doing the twist
Dancing with toys
I've been waiting all night
For someone like you
But you'll have to do
I've been waiting all night

Psychedelic Furs, The Run And Run Comments
probably their best song.
Timeless!
Ma me and her boys
Doorbell plays Beethoven ...
saw them in Ann Arbor Michigan 37 years ago. Still sounds Great!
This song splits me in two it's so fucked
And with Phil Calvert on drums (Ex-The Birthday party)
The ads are getting really annoying on here. Why would Youtube think a person trying to play a Psychedelic Furs song would care to hear a 20 second ad for the new Carlie Rae Jepson record? Um no and NO
They stayed at Le Parc!
Great song in a decade of greatest songs
First video ever seen by the Psychedelic Furs out classic 1983 watching Goodnight in Compton California and my parents four-bedroom house one of the first New Wave video shows came on at 12 a.m. and play all your classic then brand new. new wave cuts.
Why is there such a low view count? :(
Brilliant songwriter!
perfetct
Love the furs coooooool
Pure class
At the time Bowie's fave band
Top Times, top guys. Phill Calvert from The Birthday Party on drums.
Happy Birthday today(June 5) to Richard Butler. Cheers!
Tim Butler always had the greatest clothing, sunglasses, hair, and look!!!
Fantastic Production by Todd Rundgren!
one band that has never let me down ….i remember this deliverying news papers in in the 80s w/ my sony walkman
Happy Birthday today(November 30) to guitarist John Ashton. Cheers!
ONE BAND THAT HAS NEVER LET ME DOWN …..
I’ve been waiting all night for someone like you.....but.....
Way more raw expression than Bowie, hornier than Iggy...who wouldn’t pick up those keys at that party??
Saw these a couple of weeks ago, still the same hypnotic gravelly voice, brilliant night!
Still the greatest band ever,.furs live forever.
82 listening to this getting ready to go out to play
Fantastic song Fantastic album,Fantastic BAND,
ONE BAND THAT HAS NEVER LET ME DOWN …..OVER 30 YEARS …...
ken dodd
One of my favorites.
one band that HAS NEVER LET ME DOWN
One band that has never let me down …..
Love this song! Brings back amazing times!
It's fucking WEIRD how TERRITORIAL I've become with the EPIC music that I grew up with during the 80's!!!! ( such as one of my TOP FAVE bands right here like The Furs!!!... ) I think it's the "access" that this You Tube SHITHOLE sometimes provides and reading how a lot of these fucking ZYGOTES ( that haven't even been spawned yet.... ) think they can "jump on the bandwagon" five minutes after listening/watching a BRILLIANT band like The Furs & other equally PHENOMENAL bands from the era.... Whereas it's taken me THIRTY-FOUR motherfucking years to EARN that HONOR!!!... I NEVER wanted my ADORED 80's "college radio music" to become that "popular" ( although in a few cases back then those bands made it onto the "mainstream" at least for a short while... ) I wholly believe in the philosophy that LESS is always MORE.... Also this "nostalgia" thing doesn't really "apply" to the more "underground" 80's stuff because you're not being fucking BRAINWASHED into thinking you've got to be "hung up" on the "era" is being "created on"... Time is only a fucking "concept" anyway so how can I be so-called "nostalgic" when I'm "theoretically" still living in an string of "nows" and the NOW I choose happens to be 1982!!!...
First time I saw this video when I was 15 back in 1985. Classic. Good times, good times.
The constant cigarette
Oh how I love you, lead singer
Dancing in front of fucking Keith Haring shit
There is something like a god
Edie Jeanne I am hooked on Richard from this period. He is so freaking SEXY in this video. Also the live versions of Sleep Comes Down & Sister Europe.
Edie Jeanne His name is Richard Butler.
Ur not the only one Richard is one sexy mf
I love this song.
My favorite P Furs song. But what a stupid video. It simply does not capture the song.
Classic cool.:)
Phil Calvert the drummer?
gipsy88hotmail
yes, but just for this tour. i believe he's also on the back of the Danger single.
great era for music.....
dal lontano 1982 che li ascolto!!!!!!!!!!!
I used to play this in a band many years ago. Very simple but it's a little gem.
First song I ever heard that turned me on to the Furs... rest is history.
Vevo audio version, blows
not a bad song on this album, all of em are gems. viva la furs!
It sounds like early Sisters of Mercy. Althought the influence was mutual, I think the inventors were the Furs. Both bands were friends and John Ashton was their producer in Alice 7".
This is REAL
Tip the table. It is well past time.
From 2:24 on just kicks arse. Fuck them all. Love your friends.
@Darryl Snow The acceleration at 2:50 is as good as their punk got IMO.
Love to sing this song so much!
yep....this is one of their best songs...along with Alice's House and President Gas and FALL
I totally agree! Thumb up:)
Come on and run run away...
R u in love with Richard as much as i am ? Let's go to Ny and ask to have a threesome lol
I've been waiting all night for someone like you
But
You'll have to do...
One of the greatest lines of all time...
A landmark rock song with < 25K hits? The world plainly
deserves Justin Bieber.
'Soap Commercial' has 11K
Played this ALL the time on Friendly City Rock, WTCS, Fairmont, WV. My favorite song of theirs...
Great. Cant beleive I never seen this before. Is it recently released or something? One of me faves an all!
great underrated Fur's tune. Never would have heard if I didn't start listening to vinyl. Great Fur's albums are available on that format for cheap!
yep - this song kicks ass
The Psychedelic Furs aren't about "The Eighties". I speak with some authority on this, I grew up in "The Sixties". Right now, these guys are The Greatest Rock Band on The Planet. The Stones excepted of course, but only by seniority.
@Tipi Dan Amen
I like it.
I love this band
One of my faves by the Furs.
me too still gives me a buzz at 50- live in the 80's will never forget it
Give me back my 80s!
Excellent. Thanks for posting!
Really? You did a great job!
Love My Way. :)
I directed this video and Sleep Comes Down for the Furs in 1982. I lost my copy and haven't seen it for well over twenty years. I'm surprised how good it looks, I wasn't a bit embarrassed watching it. Unusual for the time, the record company let me pick which song I wanted to use, and this was my favorite. We shot on video instead of film, so we could just let the cameras roll and have lots of material to pick from. Big shoutout to Richard and Tim from Bill Davis. Great to see you still rocking!
It's a great video and among my favorite Furs tunes. You did a great job
We spent a lot of time and money at Venus records. I remember hearing about this video shoot, but never saw the video until about a year ago. Revisiting it now. Well done!
My favorite Furs song. Pitch perfect pop.Todd Rundgrens production put them over the top.
Filmed in New York City, obviously. I lived on East 44th Street (in Midtown Manhattan) not far from the East River, but this all looks like it was filmed around Battery Park or walking north from DUMBO in Brooklyn maybe, plus Gramercy Park. Yeah, one of my fave Furs songs, although _Pretty In Pink_ was the big mainstream hit from that particular album. That song garnered the band a lot of attention.
this was by FAR my favorite P Furs song of all time. And the crazy part - 30 years later I'm seeing the video for the first time. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Thank you
My Favorite Song.
I saw them last week....still stellar! Amanda gave me her set list...this song was scratched off it and I was soooo sad they didn't play it!
When my dad showed me this song in 2006 (when I was 4) I was dribbling and going AGAIN! AGAIN! when ever the video ended.
It think I broke the record of being the youngest to like this band at 10 years old!!!!
so,i`ve been sitting here for the past couple of hours watching the furs.can anybody tell me how to pick a favorite song by one of the best groups ever?hands down,the 80`s was the best musical decade.how can one compete with the cure,furs,or joy division???
try the song shineaway by BT featuring richard...
I remember blasting this song in the 80's while i was getting dressed to go clubbing with my friends and dancing with my dog, Brute. He loved this song, too!
Wow, I can't believe this song is finally here. I was about 16 when this album came out. It was my first Furs album and I've been a fan ever since. Truly magical music.
I know right. Such a great song, finally on YouTube. I guess VEVO does work for something.
Finally, my favourite Psychedelic Furs music video up on Youtube! Hooray! :D I love this song, it's so amazing. ♥
Amanda Ciampa your comment was seven years ago so I’m not sure if you’ll see my reply. You may be interested in knowing The Furs have an album of all new music coming out soon.
