Run away from all your boredom
Run away from all your whoredom
And wave your worries
And cares goodbye
All it takes is one decision
A lot of guts, a little vision
To wave your worries
And cares goodbye
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a race
A race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race
A race for rats
A race for rats to die
Sick and tired of Maggie's Farm
She's a bitch with broken arms
To wave your worries
And cares goodbye
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a race
A race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race
A race for rats
A race for rats to die
Run away
Run away from all your whoredom
And wave your worries
And cares goodbye
All it takes is one decision
A lot of guts, a little vision
To wave your worries
And cares goodbye
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a maze for rats to try

It's a race
A race for rats

To wave your worries
And cares goodbye
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a race
A race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race
A race for rats
A race for rats to die
Run away

Well put. An amazing band.
No one but RP told me about Placebo.
And no — NOT my favorite band by far…. and still — the beauty of how incredibly diverse music is…and how it moves and shifts us ever embodied by the RP experience.
What an amazing gift!! So very grateful for this journey!!

Another tune introd'd to me here on R.P. A very grabbing lively track it is, but I heard it from another room and my ears weren't fully engaged. I'll try to find it again on You Tube or something. This might be another ear worm. Gimme a 7.

the percussion. I mostly like Placebo, but not this one.
The musical equivalent of Ipecac.

Can\'t stand these guys. I\'ve seen them in concert (opening for Stabbing Westward) and still can\'t stand them... he sounds like the lead singer from Rush, all nose...

Ahhhh.... two LA guys like it. Figures. SoCal.

Annoying, adenoidal vocals. No redeeming qualities.
I was in a concert last saturday.
Not bad but I\'d enjoyed more old songs. \"Slave to the wage\" was played and it was one of the best moments. Everybody was singing.
However, only a version of \"Teenage angst\" wasn\'t enough for the first album. Not playing \"Come home\", \"Bionic\" or \"Nancy boy\" is unforgiven.

this band has grown on me in a huge way, thanks to RP.
Placebo, nice change of pace for RP. Variety is the spice!
