[Verse 1]

Outrunning karma

That boy, he's such a charmer

All the bugs and their larva

Follow him out to Colorado

Ten dozen hearts in a bag

Their bodies lying

He'll drag them down to Colorado

A modern desperado

[Pre-Chorus]

And he'll race for miles through the night

He runs because he knows he cannot hide

[Chorus]

He's never gonna make it

All the poor people he's forsaken

Karma is always gonna chase him for his lies

It's just a game of waiting

From the church steeple down to Satan

Karma, there's really no escape until he dies

[Verse 2]

Outrunning karma

That boy can't run no farther

It's the last days of Sparta

Follow him down to meet Apollo

[Pre-Chorus]

And he'll brace for battle in the night

He'll fight because he knows he cannot hide

[Chorus]

He's never gonna make it

All the poor people he's forsaken

Karma is always gonna chase him for his lies

It's just a game of waiting

From the church steeple down to Satan

Karma, there's really no escape until he dies

[Bridge]

La-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la

La-la

La-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la

La-la

[Chorus]

He's never gonna make it

All the poor people he's forsaken

Karma is always gonna chase him for his lies

It's just a game of waiting

From the church steeple down to Satan

Karma, there's really no escape until he dies

[Outro]

La-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la

La-la
