about

Lost for the longest time. Recorded this one during the Desolation Sound sessions. It ended up on a DAT mix and got lost in the shuffle. I try not to hang out with girls like that anymore ....

lyrics

MISS RUNAWAY

Another little urchin in the chain of life
Sold your story to me
A rage of red turned to blinding white
It only gets stranger in dreams

You're a brat on a hot tin roof, baby
You'll get what's comin' to you, yeah
Find some sanctuary underground
Or you'll pay for a heart battered black and blue

Miss Runaway -
You've been a bad little girl from the start
Miss Runaway -
You better cover your tracks if you're smart
Oh yeah

You looked so sweet while you were tellin' me lies
You gave me the works ...
Ran the name on the tip of my tongue, honey
All we could come up with was dirt

You're a brat on a hot tin roof, baby ...
You get what's comin' to you -

So the story goes on down the line
Electric blue fire on the wire
Steel my heart when you tug at my sleeve
You never did cool my desire
You looked so sweet while you were tellin' me lies
You gave me the works
Ran your name on the tip of my tongue, honey
Here's what I heard ...

You're a brat on a hot tin roof, baby ...
