lyrics

Keep your eyes peeled,
and your ears to the ground,
don't you dare forget,
who runs this town.

So keep your lips sealed,
and keep your faith in the hound,
coz when you're falling
only he will hear the sound.

Bow to the sound, walk this town,
I know my old man, what he said to me,
he said 'always cut away, and you won't be cut down'.
Talkin' about the pipe, I wear over this smile,
smile I smirk, ghost smoking conductor.

Coz I run this town, ruling with a flat-cap crown,
you can hide behind your walls, climb the clouds,
but you know I just keep, breaking them down,
I may be lost but you can be found.
I said don't you blink, don't you cry,
you only need to outrun I, who runs this town.
Who runs this town.

Keep your eyes peeled,
and your ears to the ground,
don't you dare forget,
who runs this town.
So keep your lips sealed,
and keep your faith in the hound,
coz when you're falling
only he will hear the sound.

Oh mystify the mist in your eyes,
you do what you want to, three, four, five,
times up now don't be shy.
Talkin' about my dame, from heaven she fell,
oh she says I'm down to earth but we both know I'm going down to hell.

Coz I run this town, ruling with a flat-cap crown,
you can hide behind your walls, climb the clouds,
but you know I just keep, breaking them down,
I may be lost but you can be found.
I said don't you blink, don't you cry,
you only need to outrun I, who runs this town.
Who runs this town.

So keep your eyes peeled,
and keep your eyes to the ground,
so keep your lips sealed,
and keep your faith in the hound.
So keep your eyes peeled,
and keep your eyes to the ground,
don't you dare forget,
who runs this town.

Keep your eyes peeled,
and your ears to the ground,
don't you dare forget,
who runs this town.
So keep your lips sealed,
and keep your faith in the hound,
coz when you're falling
only he will hear the sound.

Keep your eyes peeled,
and keep your ears to the ground.
So keep your lips sealed,
and don't you dare forget who runs this,
who runs this town.
