escapade in full

Look out
some one
from the world's gonna
stop you someday
if you give them their way
they'll take yours, look out
some one from the world's gonna
stop you somehow
if you don't
look out
now
pores

dilate and breathe
as adrenaline curls
through the bloodstream's surge
to a river that spins
the world

Look out
some one
from the world's gonna
spot you if you run that hot
that fast that hard
watch out some one
from the world's gonna drop you
if you try to step up
your game
if you drop your guard, watch

your whole war get blown
to pieces
as calm cool heads
cold quiet you down
watch out
some one
from the world's gonna miss you
when you're gone, way off
into sunsets dressed
in your very best
evening gown
