Run,run, run for the roses, the bigger it opens, the sooner it closes
Meddle, meddle, friend of mine, all good things in all good time

Reach for the sun, catch hold of the moon
That ball too heavy, but what can you do
Reach for the stars, smack into the sky
You don't want to live but you're chicken to die
Ohhh, you're chicken to die

Run, run, run for the roses, the bigger it opens the sooner it closes
Meddle, meddle, friend of mine, all good things in all good time

Run for the money, caught short on the rent
Big ideas, but the cash is all spent
The trouble with love is it's on vase
You just want a cup, but you don't want to race
No, you don't want to race

Run,run, run for the roses, the bigger it opens, the sooner it closes
Meddle, meddle, friend of mine, all good things in all good time

Run for the roses, get caught on the briar
You wanted to love, next thing there's a fire
You got the Do Re, I got the Mi
I got the notion we're all at sea
Yes, we're all at sea

Run, run, run for the roses, the bigger it opens, the sooner it closes
Meddle, meddle, friend of mine, all good things in all good time
