Lyrics
Don't taste my words they are hollow

I'll eat your tongue then spit it out
Expressing a bold and aggressive intent to figuratively consume and reject the listener's speech.
Your security's borrowed
Suggesting that the listener's sense of security is temporary or not truly their own.
I take it back when I come around
Indicating a willingness to retract any borrowed security upon the speaker's return.
They call me road runner, baby
Self-identification as the "road runner," implying speed and elusiveness.
I'll be long gone by tomorrow

Far out, doin' my own thing

I'm a tough act to follow

I'm out to make a quick dollar

Did you hear that, what was that sound

What do I know, not the smartest
Humorously admitting a lack of knowledge or intelligence.
Say you seem lighter, off the ground
Observing that the listener appears to be lighter, possibly suggesting a positive change.
They call me road runner, baby
Reiterating the "road runner" identity and the imminent departure, reinforcing the theme of transience.
I'll be long gone by tomorrow
Emphasizing the impending departure and the speaker's elusive nature.
Far out, doin' my own thing
Continuing to express independence and uniqueness in personal actions.
I'm a tough act to follow

They call me road runner, baby
