I like black and white (dream in black and white)
You like black and white. Run runaway!

See chameleon, lyin' there in the sun,
All things to everyone. Run runaway!

If you're in the swing (money ain't everything)
If you're in the swing, run runaway!

See chameleon, lyin' there in the sun,
All things to everyone. Run runaway!

If you've got it sussed (don't beat around the bush)
If you've got it sussed, run runaway!

See chameleon, lyin' there in the sun,
All things to everyone. Run runaway!

Aw, now can't you wait (no, no, come on and wait)
Aw, now can't you wait? Run runaway!

See chameleon, lyin' there in the sun,
All things to everyone. Run runaway!

I like black and white (dream in black and white)
You like black and white. Run runaway!

See chameleon, lyin' there in the sun,
All things to everyone. Run runaway!

Na na na na na... Na na na na na...

Na na na na na... Na na na na na...
Na na na na na... Run runaway....
