"Runnin' from Love (In a Bear Suit)" is a song from "Buford Confidential" as Buford in a bear suit tries to run away from Brigitte.
Lyrics[]
I've got no time for conversation,
'Cause I'm runnin' from love!
Don't need no complication,
'Cause I'm runnin' from love!
Wish I had better transportation
But I'm runnin' from love,
Yes I'm runnin', runnin' from love in a bear suit
Runnin' (runnin'), runnin' (runnin'), runnin' from love! (runnin' from love!)
Runnin' (runnin'), runnin' (runnin'), runnin' from love!
How about a giraffe suit?
Afraid I'll hit my head
How about a reindeer suit?
I can't pull that sled!
How about a lemming suit?
Afraid where I'd be led!
I guess I should feel lucky cause if you find yourself runnin' from love in an animal-themed costume,
You could do a whole lot worse than a bear suit
Runnin' (runnin'), runnin' (runnin'), runnin' from love! (runnin' from love!)
Runnin' (runnin'), runnin' (runnin'), runnin' from love!
(Oh, runnin' from love!) Runnin' (runnin'), runnin' (runnin'), runnin' from love in a bear suit
