don't want to go to school don't want to go outside don't want to go to bed don't want to run and hide don't want to be sedated don't want to sniff some glue don't want to be your dog don't want something to do don't want to go to class don't want to go to my room don't want to hold your hand don't want to fly to the moon don't want to be sedated don't want to sniff some glue don't want to be a good boy don't want to destroy you

you see her across the room, a fire-haired dame you walk up meekly and ask for her name she whispers 'joesie' and then you know you're stuck that's what you get when you've got hard luck she plays the bass got a killer's face a Bond tattoo in a private place she'll kiss you sweetly and tell you to go get f*cked that's what you get when you've got hard luck her georgia peach is out of reach ain't got no fuzz but it tastes so sweet don't cross her path or she'll give you a nip and tuck

about

Pretty Girls is a fast-hitting, 4-song EP that leaks and spits the glory (and gory) of when punk was stripped down and fun. As the long-awaited follow up to their full-length Wet Sounds release, the Runs once again prove that they are one of the few bands with the courage and insight to crack open and expose the root of the human condition with topics like girls, not understanding girls, beer, backroom politics, apathy about doing stuff, and girls. the Runs were recorded by Bart Thurber at House of Faith studios in Oakland, CA and he agreed that, like a mysterious fish wrapped in newspaper given to you in an alley, this EP is full of raw hits.
