[VERSE 1]
Pretty face, shaggy hair
And blue, blue eyes
Can’t be responsible
For what I do to those guys
I chase your memory, your double
Causing misery and trouble
And I work real hard
Just to rip them apart
Hitch up your pants
Get ready to go
Pack all your bags
Get ready to bolt
[VERSE 2]
He’s sweet to me
Like you were once upon a time
It’s too bad he don’t know
That he’s paying for your crimes
I run him down, down, baby
Smile savage at his “save me!”
‘Cause you set me loose, baby
You set me loose
Hitch up your pants
Get ready to go
Pack all your things
Get ready to bolt
[CHORUS]
Baby, baby, I’m trouble
(Hazard to your health)
Baby, baby, I’m trouble
(Just can’t help myself)
Run, run, run, on the double
(You better run like hell)
You better run like hell
[VERSE 3]
Love may be blind,
But revenge sure ain’t
I never pretended I was some kind of saint
I don’t care about his name,
Only that you look the same
So call the priest, not the doctor
‘cause his ship is going under
Hitch up your pants
Get ready to go
Pack all your things
Get ready to bolt
[CHORUS]
Baby, baby, I’m trouble
(Hazard to your health)
Baby, baby, I’m trouble
(Just can’t help myself)
Run, run, run, on the double
(You better run like hell)
Just can’t help myself
[BRIDGE]
You set me loose
You set me loose, baby
You set me loose
You set me loose, baby
You did me dirty, baby, and I’m vicious when I’m crazy
So cover up them baby blues
‘cause this bitch is on the loose
[CHORUS]
Baby, baby, I’m trouble
(Hazard to your health)
Baby, baby, I’m trouble
(Just can’t help myself)
Run, run, run, on the double
(You better run like hell)
Just can’t help myself
Baby, baby, I’m trouble
(Hazard to your health)
Baby, baby, I’m trouble
(Just can’t help myself)
Run, run, run, on the double
(You better run like hell)
(You better be runnin’)
You better run like hell
