This song describes an actual event when drummer Chris Mars and singer/guitarist Paul Westerberg were riding on a motorcycle. They indeed ran a red light, and unfortunately, contrary to the lyrics, a cop was indeed watching, and gave chase. Hilarity ensued.
Red light, red light, run it
Red light, red light, run it
Lyndale, Garfield
Back up now 'cept
Engine stopped runnin'
There ain't nobody watchin' -- run it
There ain't nobody watchin' -- run it
Lyndale, Garfield
Back up now 'cept
Engine stopped runnin'
Ain't no truth -- run it
Ain't no good -- run it
Lyndale, Garfield
Back up now 'cept
Engine stopped runnin'
Run it
Run, run, run it
Run It was written by Paul Westerberg & Chris Mars.
