Wake Me When I'm Under, Single, 1997

Runaround

My little runaround
Where have you been
I know things are better up there
but I will not leave again
No need to lay it on there
'cause I don't care that much
nothing is worth loving out there
greed has a losers touch

Oh the ragged birds are crying
Ain't no future in tears
cannot keep chasing my tail
wasted too many years
I'll never hang the stars
in two places at once
The past it is finally grown tired
sleep is all I really want

./. My little runaround

[CD, dahlia records, DHL0020, 1997]
Runaround by Chris & Carla
recorded in the living room by Chris and Carla.

"Runaround" appear on the split limited-edition 7" single called "Wake Me When I'm Under," with the Willard Grant Conspiracy's "Archy's Lullaby" on one side and Chris and Carla's "Runaround" on the other. The WGC song is inspired by the 'Archy & Mehitabel' poems. The Chris & Carla song was previously available on a Glitterhouse sampler. The single is a limited edition, on red vinyl, with a hand-screened sleeve.
"Runaround" was transcribed by Jørgen Rasmussen, April, 1998.
