runaway the musical, erika poh - the great escape lyrics
[officer]
hey! hey!
there’s a runaway headed to the train platform!
goddammit
[ensemble]
hey hey! miss runaway
which direction are you headed today?
hey hey! whatcha doing here?
run along now little lady
hey hey! ain’t there school today?
clock’s striking eight and girl aren’t you late?
hey hey! is it time to go?
can’t be waiting round’ no more
[mia]
i see the train doors closing
it’s me that they’re calling
so please, get out of my way
run away, run away
[ensemble]
she’s a runaway, runaway
[mia]
what? no!
[ensemble]
look at her eyes, darting side to sidе, there she goеs
look at her feet, she don’t miss a beat, she’s shuffling
front to the back, looking kind of whack, she
shows no fear, that runaway
[mia]
hi! my name is mia
i’m eighteen years old this year
and cards on the table, i’m running away from home!
see, just normal teenagers stuff
i’m sure you’ve all done it before, right? no…?
well, i’m really scared of what’s ahead
but i guess
this is my great escape!
[ensemble]
hey hey! girl what’s the crime?
tryna get away from doing time
hey hey!
i know your secrets. shh…
hey hey!
what you’re experiencing here is really just the result of childhood trauma that is manifesting itself in ‘rebellious’ adolescent actions +
hey hey!
extra! extra! girl makes a break from home and the police are in pursuit!
[mia]
life’s not as smooth as i thought
and strife leaves me distraught
i’ve arrived at one conclusion
run away, run away
[ensemble]
she’s gonna runaway, runaway
[ensemble]
look at her smile, faking, that’s her style, there she goes
look at her hands, shifting like the sands, she’s trembling
fast and slow, look at her go
but she shows no fear, that runaway
[mia]
wait. what if this changes nothing?
what if in the end it all stays the same?
but you know what, i’ll cross that bridge when we get to it
so what now?
[ensemble]
run away, run away
[mia]
so i can?
[ensemble]
run away, run away
[mia]
so i should?
[ensemble]
run away, run away
[mia]
but if i+
[ensemble]
run away, run away
[mia]
ah, screw it
[mia]
so here i go, running ‘gainst the flow
[ensemble]
you go girl!
[mia]
no turning back, i’m on a one way track
[ensemble]
yaass queen!
fast and slow, look at her go
she shows no fear
that runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
runaway, runaway
