Oh What Fun, It is to Run

Dashing through the snow


In my Brooks shoes colored gray


Over the hills we go


Huffing all the way. (Huff huff huff)


iPod earbuds ring


Making spirits bright


What fun it is to run and sing


A running song tonight.

Oh blister hells, Oh crap, I fell!
 Chafing all the way!


Oh what fun 
it is to run and sing
 in Brooks shoes colored gray, Hey!


Ankle swells, God I smell,
 Sweating all the way!


Oh what joy it is to run 
in my Brooks shoes colored gray

A day or two ago,
 I took my trainers for a ride


And soon The Usain Bolt
 was striding by my side


The guy was lean and lank


Fortuned seemed his lot


We got into a heated race


And I? – I lost upshot.

Oh blister hells, Oh crap, I fell! 
Chafing all the way!


Oh what fun 
it is to run and sing in 
Brooks shoes colored gray, Hey!


Ankle swells, God I smell,
 Sweating all the way!


Oh what joy it is to run
 in my Brooks shoes colored gray

A day of two ago


The story I must tell


I went out on a run


And on my butt I fell;


A guy was running by


Was too hot – must be gay


He laughed at me, a-sprawling lie


But quickly ran away

Oh blister hells, Oh crap, I fell! 
Chafing all the way!


Oh what fun 
it is to run and sing
 in Brooks shoes colored gray, Hey!


Ankle swells, God I smell, 
Sweating all the way!


Oh what joy it is to run
 in my Brooks shoes colored gray

Now the temps are low


Go it while you can


Take it nice and slow


And sing this running jam


If you’re still quite cold


It’s warmer when you speed


Pick up that pace and hold


And crack you'll take the lead

Oh blister hells, Oh crap, I fell!
 Chafing all the way!


Oh what fun 
it is to run and sing 
in Brooks shoes colored gray, Hey!


Ankle swells, God I smell,
 Sweating all the way!


Oh what joy it is to run 
in my Brooks shoes colored gray

Oh what joy it is to run
 in my Brooks shoes colored gray
