[Verse 1]
Robert's got a quick hand
He'll look around the room, he won't tell you his plan
He's got a rolled cigarette
Hanging out his mouth, he's a cowboy kid
He's got a six-shooter gun
Hidden in his closet with a box of funny things
But I don't even know what
But he's coming for you, yeah, he's coming for you, wait
[Chorus]
All the other kids with the pumped-up kicks
You better run, better run, outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped-up kicks
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet
[Verse 2]
Daddy works a long day
He's coming home late, yeah, he's coming home late
And he's bringing me a surprise
'Cause dinner's in the kitchen, and it's packed in ice
I've waited for a long time
[And now he's in my sight he ??] is a quick-pull trigger
I reason with my cigarette
And say, "Your hair's on fire, must've lost your wits," yeah
[Chorus]
All the other kids with the pumped-up kicks
You better run, better run, outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped-up kicks
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet
All the other kids with the pumped-up kicks
You better run, better run, outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped-up kicks
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet
