Something's After You in Malvina Reynolds

Something's after you, run, run,
Something's after you, run, run,
Something's after you, run, run,
Turn around and stand.
Turn around and stand,
Turn around and stand.
Something's after you, turn around
And stop it with your hand.

Something's after you, run, run,
Something's after you, run, run,
Something's after you, run, run,
Run a little while.
Run a little while,
Run a little while,
Something's after you, turn around
And stop it with a smile.

Something's after you, run, run,
Something's after you, run, run,
Something's after you, run, run,
Run and never fall.
Run and never fall,
Run and never fall,
Something's after you, turn around
Nothing there at all.
