Lost Song Of The Day 8/28

"Run, Run, Run" - The Third Rail (1967)

(ooooooooo)
(ooooooooo)
Up in the morning at half past eight
You can`t have your breakfast `cause you`ll be late
You tie your tie like a hangman`s noose
Ain`t no time to drink your juice
So you Run, Run, Run, Run
Yeah you Run, Run, Run, Run

Stand on the corner and wait for the bus
It`s late again, you start to cuss
The paper`s filled with all bad news
Fat lady stands on your polished shoes
So you Run, Run, Run, Run
Yeah you Run, Run, Run, Run

[spoken]
...Of the latest quotations from the New York Stock Exchange:
Heart Attacks up two & three quarters
Mental Illness split three for one
Ulcers up one
General Chaos, that`s General Chaos is up one quarter
The Great Society unfortunately is down five points

Down at the office all is still
The boss is at a funeral
A note on the door `No Work Today`
Our chief competitor passed away
So you Run, Run, Run, Run
Yeah you Run, Run, Run, Run

Up in the morning at half past eight
You can`t have your breakfast `cause you`ll be late
Tie your tie like a hangman`s noose
Ain`t no time to drink your juice
So you Run, Run, Run, Run
Yeah you Run, Run, Run, Run
Oh you Run, Run, Run, Run
Oh you Run, Run, Run, Run

One of three songs with the same title that hit the charts in the late '60s or early '70s. None of them made the top 20, but I liked all three. (The other two were by The Gestures and Jo Jo Gunne)

I love the one by Jo Jo Gunne! I don't know the others.

Not a deep social satire, but a fun social satire. Good stuff.

Like the line "tie your tie like a hangman's noose".

I'm not familiar with it, but it sounds interesting! I'll have to check it out.

[SAT-I need more room!!]

I have it on my computer from the Nuggets box, but I'll have to give it another listen to remember it.

I knew I had this (as Adam mentioned) it's on the Nuggets box.

It's good
