Run Girl Run Lyrics by The Cog Is Dead

Carnival of Clockwork

0

Annie was a curious girl
She hoped to travel the world
Explore under every stone
(La la la la la la la)
And if something did catch her eye
She'd always peer in and pry
She couldn't leave it alone
Well, curiosity, as they say
Eventually one day
Led to the death of the cat
(La la la la la la la)
And if she really knew what was best
She would have gave it a rest
Before she came across some
Thing she'd regret
Annie grabbed her new leather cap
Her trusty weathered old map
And made her way into town
(La la la la la la la)
Snuck in Mr. Willowby's store
So she could go and explore
But something was going down!
(La la la la la)
Well, Willowby was in the back
And plotting out an attack
That would take over the world!
But just then
She made a loose floorboard creak
He spotted her and he shrieked
"Hey, you there, this is no place
For little girls!"
Run, girl, run, run as fast as you can!
There's a crazed shopkeep' and you're a threat to his plan!
Run, girl, run, 'cause this [?] has gone mad
[?]
These are mechanical men
We are [?]
So run as fast as you can
Or you'll be dead!
Willowby had worked all his life
With only sorrow and strife
Leaving him bitter and chained
(La la la la la la la)
He felt that he deserved some respect
He dreamt the world would erect
A monument in his name
(La la la la la)
So he spent all his nights and his days
In his shop toiling away
With just the things in the store
(La la la la la la la)
So he made an army of drones
From pots and pans and ham bones
And other scraps from the
Re-fridgerator
Willowby knew sweet little Anne
Would surely ruin his plan
And so she had to be stopped
(La la la la la la la)
Summoning his minions of merch
He ordered them to go search
And find the girl in the shop
(La la la la la)
Well, hiding in the dairy case
Dear little Annie's heart raced
The girl was frozen with fear
But just then
She looked up from her milk crate
Preparing to meet her fate
One of the robots said "Sir
She's over here!"
Run, girl, run, run as fast as you can!
There's a crazed shopkeep' and you're a threat to his plan!
Run, girl, run, 'cause this [?] has gone mad
[?]
These are mechanical men
We are [?]
So run as fast as you can
Or you'll be dead!
Run!
Run, girl, run, run as fast as you can!
There's a crazed shopkeep' and you're a threat to his plan!
Run, girl, run, 'cause this [?] has gone mad
[?]
The robot age has begun
Humanity will be done
So to survive you gotta
RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN!
