Ankle Socks is the second single from Chris Bottone’s debut LP “Mudgie”. The song presents us with a scene of Chris running a marathon in order to escape a girl. It features Chris’s usual clever lyricism, smooth, crisp production from FrankJavCee, and earwormy melodies that you can’t help coming bac...
[Intro]
I've been runnin’ so long
So long, so long
I think what I'm running from is long gone
Long gone
[Chorus]
But I'm too scared to look back and see her gainin’ on me
Too afraid to go back and find her waitin' in
Nothing but my hoodie and some ankle socks
Ankle socks
[Verse 1]
I was sick and tired of waiting for her to have some fun
And I got lost in the land of the setting sun
And I woke up a bit too late to hear the starting gun
So I got some ground to cover from these covers to back to where I came from
Yeah
A thousand eyes were cut-and-pasted fixed on all the time I wasted
Hunters become the hunted when a lion cub sleeps with the wolf in lamb's clothes
Now that she sees me poppin'
That body won't stop rockin' back and forth to all of my songs
So before I grab at it
Get convinced I gotta have it
This Nerd-Tron's “Gotta Blast!” it
I gotta mosey on by
[Bridge]
I've been runnin’ so long
So long, so long
I think what I’m running from is long gone
Long gone
[Verse 2]
Well I had a biddy that loved me bunches
And then she ruined two years in two weeks
She wasn't in it for the marathon and now she runs free
Au revoir, no parkour
That’s a boundary I don't wanna breach
Not sweatin'
I wheeze
I'm runnin’ from those feelings I don't wanna conceive
Not from the break up but rather all the makeup
For Lost time I can do
Don't wanna hurt my heart too soon
So I'm working on my cardio
Bike, take a hike
Sip Bacardi-Oh!
I'm scared to play the field
So I'll just stick to the tracks
Dont Wreath me please
It's Greek to me
Forrest Bo-Tone run that shit back
[Bridge]
I've been runnin' so long
So long, so long
I think what I'm running from is long gone
Long gone
[Chorus]
But I'm too scared to look back and see her gainin' on me
Too afraid to go back and find her waitin' in
Nothing but my hoodie and some ankle socks
Ankle socks
[Bridge]
I've been runnin' so long
I've been runnin' so long
I think what I'm running from is long gone
Long gone
[Outro]
Yeah
Ankle socks
Yeah, yeah
Ankle socks
I've been runnin' so long
