[Verse 1]

Where has my sister gone?

Says the fire boy to his mother

They gone down to the moratorium

With your crazy little brother

Do you think she might mind if I tag along?

Says the fire boy as he detaches

Here, take me down some petroleum

And a rag and a box of matches

You better hide, you better hide away

The fire boy is purging

You better hide, you better hide away

Yeah, the cops they are surging


[Chorus]

Oh, we were always running away

Said the fire boy to his little sons

We were always running away

My darling, my precious ones


[Verse 2]

I'm gonna go wake up Mary

And together we'll get loaded

I'm gonna bite deep into her cherry

While the government houses exploded

Yeah, I love the way she jumped the counter

In her miniskirt and her leather boots

Well, I don't know what I ever did without her

As we hide in the alleyways and the garbage chutes


[Chorus]

Yeah, we were always running away

Said the fire boy to his little sons

Yeah, we were always running away

Oh my darling, my precious ones


[Outro]

Come on

Come on

Shoot it at the sun

Come on

Shoot it at the sun
