It's time to run, they'll string me up for all that I've done
I'm going soon, gonna leave tonight by the light of the moon
I did it all for you, well, I hope you know the lengths I've gone to
What's a man to say, they'll be looking for me, should be on my way

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everybody else in the world to know
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everyone to know that you're the girl for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everybody else in the world to know it
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, but I ain't ever gonna let 'em take my life from me

I've no regrets, I will not ask for your forgiveness
Lower your defense, run away with me and it'll all make sense
I did it all for you, don't spurn me after all I've gone through
No time to rest, I'm gonna find me a life, baby, way out west

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everybody else in the world to know
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everyone to know that you're the girl for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everybody else in the world to know it
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I ain't never

I will run but I know that I'm beat
I decided my fate with my deeds
I will run but I know that I'm beat
I decided my fate with my deeds

It's time to run, well, I hope you understand what I've done
Run away for you, I'm gonna count the days 'til you make it through
I did it all for you, well, I hope you live the life you want to
My time is spent, baby, please don't tell 'em just where I went

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everybody else in the world to know
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everyone to know you're the girl for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everybody else in the world to know it
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, but I ain't ever gonna let 'em take the life from me

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everybody else in the world to know it
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everyone to know you're the girl for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I wanted everybody else in the world to know it
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I ain't never

Agree, drowned in echo and reverb; heavily compressed, dragging along.

A very nice, moving song! I love the gamelan-like sounds in the intro and toward the end, and the chugging rhythms throughout, and the multi-layered singing is superb, as usual for them. Bravo!

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?   Guess that depends on how you feel about hipsters, and how you feel about frauds.

Hyperbole.  It chugs along like a choo-choo train for 5 minutes and 19 seconds.  Just saying.

That's because you decided what hipster stuff sounds like and everything you find that fits that you call hipster stuff. Self-fulfilling hatred.

The Port Huron Statement closed with: "If we appear to seek the unattainable, as it has been said, then let it be known that we do so to avoid the unimaginable." In a world haunted daily by the prospect of nuclear war, a country roiling in the civil rights movement, and being inextricably drawn into a civil war in Southeast Asia based on the so-called domino theory, what could be a more noble goal? The ideals that led those gathered outside Port Huron, Michigan in 1962 to issue this call to action not only added to the discussion of what became the Great Society of the mid-60s, but helped frame the issues that fueled the rising anti-war movement, college campus activism, and the broader social movement known then as the counterculture that carried into the early 1970s in the United States.

Took a moment to get your reference, and then boy yeah....my uncle was at the head of the Seattle area SDS march in the mid/late 60s, a pic of him walking across the ship canal bridge (i.e. I-5) with thousands of students is etched in my mind now when I hear this....thanks!!  Long Live RP!!

No kidding.  Nice one Hannio.

Somebody referenced the SDS on RP.  Sweet.  

I could be mistaken but I believe that document Hannio referenced helped push high schools in New York state and the province of Ontario to lobby for a student bill of rights.  In retrospect that movement was a little silly but out of it came many changes for the better.  I was part of that movement.

The gamelan at the start sends me back to Bali...I do wish they'd made more use of it, though! Still, beats the common stuff out there...

Perfect track for running indeed. Without my regularly updated playlist I would have given up running long ago.

I like the long bridge and extended ending...mood maker like the National, Eliot Brood, Alt-J, and War on Drugs.

Seriously irritating from the first few bars. Earache for these lugholes. TFFPSD

 
OK Fred, I do not know every variation of TFF, but in my iworld it is generally used as "too F*king funny", yet somehow I doubt that is what you had in mind.
