On the run?


With all this talk of expatriation, I find this song oddly appropriate:

Please enjoy Band on the Run, from the album of the same name, by the eternally brilliant Paul McCartney, and the vastly underrated Wings.

No purchase or download needed. Just hit play.

Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever,

Never seeing no one nice again like you,

Mama you, mama you.

If I ever get out of here,

Thought of giving it all away

To a registered charity.

All I need is a pint a day

If I ever get out of here.

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash as we fell into the sun,

And the first one said to the second one there I hope youre having fun.

Band on the run, band on the run.

And the jailer man and sailor sam were searching every one

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh seeing no one else had come,

And a bell was ringing in the village square for the rabbits on the run.

Band on the run, band on the run.

And the jailer man and sailor sam, were searching every one

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the night was falling as the desert world began to settle down.

In the town theyre searching for us every where, but we never will be found.

Band on the run, band on the run

And the county judge, who held a grudge

Will search for evermore

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run
