Lyrics

He was on the outside
But it was not his own choice
The city schemes had swallowed his dreams
And they silenced his voice

Get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away

She was on the inside
Looking for a way to be free
She was doing nine to life
Working for the company

Get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away

This is the place the rat the race
This is the place we have no face

Get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away
(Run, run, run)

There is an end to adversity
An end to the company
A time and a place for you and me
Where I can laugh and you'll be free
And there'll be no more outside or inside
To keep us apart
No more outside or inside
To keep us apart

This is the place the rat the race
This is the place we have no face
This is the place the rat the race
This is the place we have no face

I state my case

Get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away
