Liz Phair (born Elizabeth Clark Phair on April 17, 1967 in New Haven, Connecticut) is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist. Phair's entry into the music industry began when she met guitarist Chris Brokaw, a member of the band Come. Brokaw was visiting her San Francisco loft-mate Nora Maccoby when he heard Phair's songs, and encouraged her to record them. After moving back to Chicago, Phair began writing songs and recording homemade tapes under the name Girly Sound, and supported herself by selling her drawings on the streets of Chicago. She soon became apart of the alternative music scene in Chicago and became friends with Material Issue and Urge Overkill, two of Chicago's upstart bands to go national in the early 1990s, as well as Brad Wood and John Henderson, head of Feel Good All Over, an independent label in Chicago.

Fuck & Run Lyrics

Liz Phair

I woke up alarmed
I didnt know where I was at first
Just that I woke up in your arms
And almost immediately I felt sorry cause I didnt think this would happen again
No matter what I could do or say
Just that I didnt think this would happen again
With or without my best intentions
What ever happened to a boyfriend
The kind of guy who tries to win you over
What ever happened to a boyfriend
The kind of guy who makes love cause hes in it, and
I want a boyfriend
I want a boyfriend
I want all that secret old shit
Like letters and sodas
Letters and sodas
You got up out of bed
You said you had a lot of work to do
But I heard arrest in your head and almost immediately I felt sorry
Cause I didnt think this would happen again
No matter what I could do or say
Just that I didnt think this would happen again
With or without my best intentions
I want a boyfriend
I want a boyfriend
I want all that secret old shit
Like letters and sodas
Letters and sodas
I can feel it in my bones
Im gonna spend another year alone
Fuck and run
Fuck and run
Even when I was seventeen
Fuck and run
Fuck and run
Even when I was twelve
You almost felt bad you said that I should call you up but
I knew much better than that
And almost immediately I felt sorry
Cause I didnt think this would happen again
No matter what I could do or say
Just that I didnt think this would happen again
With or without my best intentions
I can feel it in my bones
Im gonna spend my whole life alone
Fuck and run
Fuck and run
Even when I was seventeen
Fuck and run
Fuck and run
Even when I was twelve
