lyrics

Set fire to your words, tear out a page
Who said the world’s a stage?
It’s not a stage for you my dear,
Not a stage for you.

Not even birds can sing like you,
But they have wings that they can use.

Runaway, runaway, runaway Judy.
Runaway, runaway, runaway Judy.

Tears in his eyes, your father wished
That he could give you more than this.
You scream it’s hateful
It’s hateful being a girl.

And though they try to tell you ‘no’
You might as well just up and go.

Runaway, runaway, runaway Judy.
Runaway, runaway, runaway Judy.

The bad intentions that you meet
Mean that you end up on the street
But you should have been the
First Virginia.

You’ll be mentioned as the face of girls
Who don’t know their place.

Runaway, runaway, runaway Judy.
Runaway, runaway, runaway Judy.

And in Elephant and Castle by the roadside
Shakespeare’s sister, Judith, died.
Who could have known, who could have known,
Who could have known, who could have known,
Who could have known, who could have known,
Who could have known, who could have known,
All she needed was a room of her own?

Runaway, runaway, runaway Judy.
Runaway, runaway, runaway Judy.
