Shoot the Runner Lyrics
[Chorus]
Shoot a runner
Shoot, shoot a runner
I'm a king and she's my queen
Shoot the runner
Shoot, shoot the runner
I'm a king and she's my queen
[Verse 1]
Dream
Dream again in your way
Always knew that you would
Lose yourself to the scene
Am I only a dream?
[Chorus]
Shoot a runner
Shoot, shoot the runner
I'm a king and she's my queen, bitch
[Verse 2]
Bang
Bang away with my Chang (my Chang)
Always know that I can
Get you onto the floor
Absinthe makes you a whore
[Chorus]
Shoot a runner
Shoot, shoot the runner
I'm a king and she's my queen
Shoot a runner
Shoot, shoot the runner
I'm a king and she's my queen, bitch
[Verse 3]
Kings
Kings may come and then go
By this sword you must know
All things will come and then pass
Live your days like the last
Ahh...
You're my queen, I said
Shoot shoot the runner
'Cause I'm a king yeah, and you're my queen, bitch
