Runaway TrainCulture Club

Released: October 26, 2018

Songwriter: Jon Moss Martin Glover Michael Craig Roy Hay Boy George

Runnin' to Boston, heart on my sleeve
Two hundred bodies is all I need
These boys are hungry and a little vain
The truth is a runaway train

Flew down to airy California sun
So many people tryin' be someone
Michelle Obama, you know my name
The truth is a runaway train

It's a runaway train, it's a runaway train
The truth is a runaway train
It's a runaway train, it's a runaway train
The truth is a runaway train

From California flew down to Rome
Feels like the whole world is my home
I miss your laughter, I miss the rain
The truth is a runaway train

It's a runaway train, it's a runaway train
The truth is a runaway train
It's a runaway train, it's a runaway train
The truth is a runaway train

Even when you're innocent, all the leaves the same
And all those judges are Shakespearean in shame
And you know I loved you as I loved you then
When you were the image of an angel

Oh oh! Runaway train, come on now
Hey oh! Runaway train

It's a runaway train, it's a runaway train, ah
The truth is a runaway train
It's a runaway train, it's a runaway train
The truth is a runaway train

It's a runaway train, yeah oh, runaway train
Ooh, it's a runaway train

Culture Club

Culture Club is a New Wave / Pop Band from London England who are known for a string of pop hits during the 1980s. Their second album, Colour By Numbers, sold more than 10 million albums, was ranked the 96th best album of the 1980s by Rolling Stone, and contained their most famous song Karma Chameleon.

Formed in 1981 by lead singer Boy George, bassist Mikey Craig, drummer Jon Moss and guitarist Roy Hay, Culture Club was named after the diversity in ethnicity and backgrounds of it’s members. They were soon after signed to Virgin records, but it wouldn’t be until the press realized Boy George’s androgynous style, before Culture Club would take off as pop hit masters.

Culture Club sold more than 50 million albums worldwide, and had international success with songs such as “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?”, “Time (Clock of the Heart)” and “I’ll Tumble 4 Ya”.
