he hit the ground running
she hit the ground and she fell and she stuck

he took to the freeway
and she stayed stuck to the ground of the parking lot

he took out a bi-i-ig loan
and she began to to deeeecay

they weren't no tourist trap couple

he landed on four feet
she had nine lives and they were all up

he exited the freeway
while she lie still with a sign in her mouth

he took out another big loan
that he would never pay off

and she zoned out

they weren't no tourist trap couple
they weren't no stage show couple
they weren't caged carriage couple
they weren't no age old couple

he hit the ground running
and he ran and he ran and he ran

she had no plan
aside from a slab of grass

and a lot of money

they weren't no tourism trap couple
they weren't no BBC couple
they weren't no caged parakeets
they weren't no trained chimpanzees

and so i'll hit the ground running
and i'll run and i'll run and i'll run

and you can do what you want
stay where you stay
and play with the notion of tourism

i'll take out my loans
without intention to repay
and you will decay
when the parachute doesn't open
