The Lyrics
Sorry, got to leave with a lot of speed
Not your fault, you see
Hey, yeah
Ho-whoa-whoa, ho-oh-oh, yeah-yeah
Skip town, must skip town, I cannot hang around
Skip town, must skip town, not soon, not later, now
Packin' my bags because I have to move
New destination: got no clue
Just needs to not be here and also have a shower
Because I panic sweat, it's true
Need my computer and thus all of its files
Won't say if that's why I've got to leave (got to leave)
The more you know, the more you'll have on your mind
And that's a problem with your loose lips, I've found
Skip town, must skip town, I cannot hang around
Skip town, must skip town, can't tell you why or how
Skip town, must skip town, this here ain't friendly ground
Skip town, must skip town, not soon, not later, now
It could be that I might have to catch a long flight
Or maybe two or three
Sorry, got to leave with near zero deets
Besides "I'm gone", see
Damn, damn, damn, I can't talk, gotta scram
Once I'm sure I won't leave any USB's
I don't want your ass to freak but you need to straight delete
Any mail I've been sendin' (yeah) once you've read it
If you see me around
Better walk, get it? No witnesses around
How it is, gotta stay a big secret
No, I still can't say what it is, duh
This ain't a holiday, it's permanent, right
It's not "I'm off", it's "I've got to leave (got to leave)", yes
Go 'head and hate me for the suddenness, fine
Means you're less likely to call me each day now
Skip town, must skip town, I cannot hang around (I gotta skip town)
Skip town, must skip town, can't let the reasons out (won't let it all spill out)
Skip town, must skip town, my safety is in doubt (hey, yeah)
Skip town, must skip town, not soon, not later, now
I don't know where I'll drive or if I'll drop a line
Don't think I'll even tweet
Sorry, got to leave, I won't fight, just flee
Don't come after me
No explanations 'cause I don't have-a the time (ooh-ooh)
One can't chit-chat once one's got to leave (got to leave), yeah-eah (ooh-ooh)
I'll only say that what I did was not a crime (ooh-ooh)
At least it wasn't from my point of view, goodbye now (ooh-ooh)
Ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa, whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
Ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa, whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh
Ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa, whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
Ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa, whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa-ooh
Sorry, got to leave, maybe hopefully
I won't trend next week
Skip town (skip town), must skip town (skip town), I cannot hang around
Skip town (skip town), must skip town (skip town), can't spill my headin' now
Skip town (skip town), must skip town (skip town), don't watch while I pull out
Skip town (skip town), must skip town (skip town), not soon, not later, now
Skip town (skip town), must skip town (skip town), I cannot hang around
Skip town (skip town), must skip town (skip town), skip town, skip town, yeah-eah
