Johnny's always running around 
Trying to find, certainty 
He needs all the world to confirm 
That he ain't lonely 
Mary counts the walls 
Knows he tires easily 

Johnny thinks the world would be right 
If it could find truth for him 
Mary says he changes his mind 
More than a woman 
But she made her bet 
Even though the chance was slim 

Johnny says he's willing to learn it 
When he decides, he's a fool 
Johnny says he'll live anywhere 
When he has time to move
Mary combs her hair 
Says she should be used to it 

Mary always hedges her bets 
She never knows what to think 
She says that he still acts like he's 
Being discovered 
Scared that he'll get caught 
Without a second thought 

Running around...awh running around

Johnny thinks he's wasting his breathe 
Trying to make sense to her 
Mary says he's lacking a real 
Sense of proportion 
So she combs her hair 
Knows he tires easily 

Johnny's always running around 
Trying to find certainty 
He needs all the world to confirm 
That he ain't lonely 
Mary counts the walls 
Says she should be used to it 

'Cause Johnny's always running around 
Running around, running around
