Eraserheads Lyrics

"Combo on the Run"

We took a trip by boat

Into the promised land

To sing a different note

Man I don't understand

We wanted their attention

Our balls went up so high

They wanted too much Poison

And Warrant's Cherry Pie

It's a crying, crying, crying shame

We didn't have no dough

We didn't have no clue

We lived a life of kings

Dined on some royal stew

We felt like shitty rockstars

Our pictures on the wall

We're Robby's pekaloids

Running silly down the hall

I wanna go home now

Back to my old hometown

Where I can sing the blues

Let's stop this running around

I miss the people dancing

I'm (just) saying this,

But, baby you can bet your puwet

I'll do it again some time for the money

Combo on the run, yeh!

It's a crying, crying, crying shame

It's a downright shame! (Well)

We took a trip by boat

Into the promised land

To sing a different note

Man I don't understand

We wanted their attention

Our balls went up so high

They wanted too much Poison

And Warrant's Cherry Pie

I wanna go home now

Back to my old hometown

Where I can sing the blues

Let's stop this running around

I miss the people dancing

I'm (just) saying this,

But, baby you can bet your puwet

I'll do it again some time for the money

Combo on the run, yeh!

Combo on the run!

Ultraelectromagnetic pop!

Combo on the run

I'm (just) saying this,

But, baby you can bet your puwet

I'll do it again some time for the money

Combo on the run, yeh!

(Yeh...) Combo on the run...
