[Verse]
He was running away in the alley one day
Yes, he was
He didn't carry his back, and nothing to say
I was told
He took a taxi out of town, yeah
Couldn't miss the plane to Santa Fair
There was something strange about Mister Ou
Ou-Ou-Ou
[Verse]
Time is ticking, best to check the usual way
They recall
Nothing suspicious, not even wearing a gun
Initial
But when they reach ten thousand feet almost
By box will change in the seats we know
When they arrive, he wasn't true at all
[Chorus]
In the south he lived out a totally different life
Change his style, put on a smile
And another life
He couldn't stand being usual
Totally out of interest
With somebody else's money
It changed his life
[Verse]
So now I'm running away in the alley one day
Yes, I am
I won't carry my bag, I got nothing to say
Don't be sad
I'll take a taxi out of town, yeah
I won't miss the plane to Santa Fair
They will say there's something wrong with me
Ou-Ou-Ou
[Chorus]
In the south he lived out a totally different life
Change his style, put on a smile
Have another wife
'Cause he can't stand being usual
You are really uninterest
With somebody else's money
It changed his life
