Why does a runny volcano not explode?

The explosive force of an explosive eruption comes from gasses trapped in the magma. Runny magma does not hold gasses very well, and so those gasses escape before the magma erupts. The runny magma can also easily flow to the surface without getting stuck and having to be blown out, unlike thicker types of magma.
