"Fuck and Run" is a song by American singer-songwriter Liz Phair from her debut studio album Exile in Guyville (1993). The song was written by Phair and produced by Brad Wood.

Background and recording

According to a 2018 interview with Elle.com, Phair stated: "there was no one encounter that I went home and just wrote the song about". In 1993, Phair re-recorded "Fuck and Run" for her debut album Exile in Guyville. The album's title is a parody of the Rolling Stones album Exile on Main St., which was very much an influence on Phair while recording the final album version of "Fuck and Run".

Later performances

Phair has continued to perform this song live, including a version performed at Planned Parenthood in 2017 that went viral.
