The city seems at peace tonight
The city sleeps, I run the lights
From the East to the West side
It's a all night ride
A garbage truck honks their horn
Great minds collide, a treaty torn
No allegiance, sold skin tight
Not to stay tonight
I heard (I heard...)
How soon the day come (How soon that day...)
Blue jay got me on the run (Got me on the run, uh-huh)
I heard (Uh-huh, uh...)
How soon the day come
Blue jay got me on the run (I said blue jay...)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Got me running on... I...)
Blue jay got me on the run (Oh, got me on the run)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Uh, uh-huh, uh-huh, huh)
Blue jay got me on the run
I think about that thought of you
I've read the Greeks, like Chinese do
From the bottom, looking up
It's a death-defying drop
I break the glass, I keep the score
Tag the halls and corridors
I work it light
I work the light
I worked it long and light
I heard (I heard...)
How soon the day come (How soon that day...)
Blue jay got me on the run (You got me on the run)
I heard (Oh, yeah)
How soon the day come (Mmm...)
Blue jay got me on the run (Got me running wild)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Blue jay got me on the run (Let me tell you 'bout it)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Let me tell you 'bout it, my my my)
Blue jay got me on the run (I said blue jay...)
