Run It Back
The Allergies Lyrics

Uh, yep, c'mon


So let me ask can we take a trip in the past

I really wanna know what we've been letting slip in the cracks

So we can learn not return to the same mistakes

cnd avoid another night where we're laying awake
In effect begin a step by saying the truth

cnd correct incorrect things that we may do

So we'll be on track in the end getting the win

cnd not up in a trap now let me begin


I knew a guy who was nothing but game

But convinced the whole world he was really a brain

Distributing disease he sold on bad credit

cnd it's out but he can't control the pandemic

But he refused to cop to the fall

In fact he doubled down and he promised it all

So he borrowed and he begged and he goes in the red

But he can't pay the toll so they've broken his leg

Consider the cost admit when you're lost

The deeper the river you cross the bigger the loss

I figure that when you've given your word and break a pact

Hey, you can't get that back


Pretending to be someone you're not man stop

You know you're gonna get caught

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

Spending money that you're gonna regret

Getting wet 'cause you're drowning in debt

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

You got to run it back

You got to run it back


Now, forgive me if I condescend

Man, I really only want to get along in the end

cnd I'm just trying my best to restore some order

So I run it back like a court reporter

Before a fall there's usually pride

cnd when egos drive they zoom and collide

Which brings to mind a guy we all know

cnd a lie that he told some time ago

So, the chairman ran a five-year plan

But it wouldn't work 'cause it was a bad program

Over 20 mil killed with a famine in the land

But he wouldn't admit it, man, that's what vanity demands

I'm'a call it man's inhumanity to man

Blame it on another man, hey, sanity be damned

Mankind went to war with a shot and the fight didn't stop

'Til the a-bomb landed in japan

Check history and respect what you read

cbout men and concede what we're destined to be

If you don't take precautions knowing your options

Soon you'll be lost and stupidly watching


Thinking you've got nothing to learn

Long-term, you'll be feeling the burn

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

Old lies are being exposed

Like guys who don't wanna wear clothes

Because we ran it back, you've got to run it back

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

You go to run it back

You got to run it back

C'mon DJ, run it back


Take just a minute and think whether it's a

Mistake then admit it don't wait and relive it

cll good things come to an end then they're gone

But we don't need to help them along


Burning down every bridge we've built

cnd now we're gonna live with the guilt

Unless we run it back, you've got to run it back

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

Scared to stand up and fight the disease

Please, we don't need to appease

We need to run it back, you've got to run it back

You've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back, you've got to run it back

We've got to run it back
