Gotta Get Away (The Offspring song)

"Gotta Get Away" is a song by American rock band The Offspring. It is the fourth track and third single from their breakthrough album Smash (1994). The song was a modest hit in several countries, but peaked at No. 6 on Billboard's Modern Rock charts. "Gotta Get Away" was inspired by an early track, "Cogs", written while the band was still named Manic Subsidal. Although the song was a big hit, it did not reach the heights nor achieve the popularity, success, airplay, or sales of the album's previous singles "Come Out and Play" and "Self Esteem".

The song had two single covers. The first, the cover for the CD single, depicts a skeleton in the same style as the previous singles from Smash - "Come Out And Play" and "Self Esteem". The second, the cover for the 7" vinyl, shows the actor from the video standing outside the coliseum, his eyes covered by the song title.

The song also appears as the same track on their Greatest Hits (2005).
