The Lyrics

If i ever want to do a full album parody of californication, with this song I have three done. I think i wanted to do a parody of this song since it first came out and now i finally have.
This calls, this calls for my flight
Since I cannot fight, too well
Like hell I've got to run
Being caught
Would not be too much...

I heard a voice much less soft than wood
He made a threat he would get me good
I'm not slow so I did what I should
I had to break into a runner's stride

Said his dad was just a tad insane
He started screaming that he'd beat in my brains
Didn't take long for me to decide
I had to break into a runner's stride
Break into a runner's stride
Break into
Break into

This calls, this calls for my flight
Since I cannot fight, too well
Like hell I've got to run
Being caught
Would not be too much...

Put my foot into my mouth again
I was a fool I insulted five men
Then made good use of adrenaline
I had to break into a runner's stride

Wooly Bully asked me for my cash
And I declined then my whole life flashed
Before my eyes and I left fast
I had to break into a runner's stride
Break into a runner's stride
Break into
Break into

This calls, this calls for my flight
Since I cannot fight, too well
Like hell I've got to run
Being caught
Would not be too much...

Been running for a really long time
My poor heart does not like this runner's stride
It's beating means that I
Have to slow down
But I just can't yeah I just can't
Since they are still around

This calls, this calls for my flight
Since I cannot fight, too well
Like hell I've got to run
Being caught
Would not be too much...

This calls...
Like hell I've got to run
Being caught
Would not be too much...
