The best part of that live performance is the tempo not being sped up.

The liftoff/take off portion of the song is great. Sometimes I wonder if he has phrases and sentences in a notebook and he plugs them in where he thinks they fit when he sees a chance to use them. Weird that he uses this combo again so quickly after Invincible. Not complaining. I’m here for both.

Quoting myself from one of the MM threads:
Mike kind of ruins GSMF but I still like it.

It's the same default beer commercial bluesy bending intro he does on nearly every fast punky number - he does it on Running too.

Is it meant to be a Social Distortion-type thing?

I don't really know, dad punk is definitely not my thing, but it's both boring and grating.
In a shocking revelation, the Stern version confirms it’s Stone playing the beer commercial guitar on Running.

Eddie banging out these lyrics because he wanted to go to sleep is really funny.

ha ha, I like that comparison. And, I agree. In a long list of those "throwaway" spritzers, I probably enjoy this one the most. More details of the song keep revealing themselves. I dig it a lot.
