Yeah... yeah!

[Verse 1: Urthboy]

What do we want?
We want that muthafucking bomb
And we never pause to consider if we got it wrong
What we really want is a magic wand
Sell it for a song
Whatever the Red Queen wants
Chase Alice through Saddam's palace ? if your feet don't keep balance
Develop wings like Daedalus
Your neighbors get jealous and develop their own
But in the meantime consolidate your place on the throne
You prohibit alcohol and make a king of Capone
You had it coming, you better do more than running ?
Skipping is jumping its outmuscling them and then bumping em
Its evolving ever better ways of outwitting the other come on
The endless cycle tit-for-tat
Cat-and-mouse game and never end the risk of that, nah
Empires expire, systems collapse
Viruses attack, bacteria fight back
It just don't stop, keep running on the spot keep running round the clock come on
Watch what's behind you, cos now they're beside you
Before you know it they'll be flying right by you
[Chorus]

What are you walking for? Run!
Run like your life is in danger
Keep running but stay on the same spot
Imagine where we'd be if we stopped... Go! Go!
What are you walking for? Run!
Run like your life is in danger
Keep running but stay on the same spot
Imagine where we'd be if we stopped...
Keep running, running
Keep running, running

[Verse 2: Ozi Batla]

The Red Queen said keep the refugees locked up
Or ship em off to Malaysia, trying to persuade ya
That we can take a strong stance, stop the boats landing
They said that in 1788, still standing
Well we're running on that treadmill, the polls demand it
Say one thing and do another, that's underhanded
Let's say racism was Hanson's invention
But she wasn't the one that put the kids in detention
But we really care a lot, look at the NT intervention
Running hard on the cure but not prevention
Now that's a "Too-Hard Basket" if I ever saw one
It makes your apology look like a fucking poor one
Send in the troops to control the pay packets
Yo we're taking the land
Well that sounds like the same racket
If we didn't do something it'd be time to fret, ha
Genocide through benign neglect, yuh
[Chorus]

What are you walking for? Run!
Run like your life is in danger
Keep running but stay on the same spot
Imagine where we'd be if we stopped... Go! Go!
What are you walking for? Run!
Run like your life is in danger
Keep running but stay on the same spot
Imagine where we'd be if we stopped...
Keep running, running
Keep running, running

We keep running we keep we keep running
