The Getaway by Ten Foot Pole Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1998

Please don't chase me anymore
I nearly forgot just what I'm runnin' for
I meant no harm
My gas pedal's to the floor

People watch this on TV
Never thought that this could happen to me
I can't stop now and it still seems like a dream

Never thought I'd hit someone
Now I see you clutching your gun
You're playing for keeps and there's no place left to run

I had to make a choice, I made it
If I had another chance I'd take it
I've gotta find a way to make a getaway

Today my future looks so bright
All it took was one red light
Sirens were close behind
And my brain said fight or flight
So I ran from my mistake
Not the best choice I could make
The helicopter reminds me that this time there is no lucky break

I had to make a choice, I made it
If I had another chance I'd take it
I've gotta find a way to make a getaway

Please don't chase me anymore
I nearly forgot just what I'm runnin' for
I meant no harm
My gas pedal's to the floor

I always do things my own way
Never cared what the experts say
I thought they were so full of shit
I guess it's time to pay

I always dreamed I'd have it all
Never thought I'd take the fall
And now I've run out of chances
And all I can I see is the wall

I had to make a choice I made it
If I had another chance
(Make a getaway) I had to make a choice, I made it
(Made a getaway) If I had another chance, I'd take it
(Make a getaway) I've got to find a way to make a getaway
