Fun Lovin' Criminals - Running For Cover lyrics

For forty days and for forty nights I been walkin' down these streets Tryin' to get it right But down there lies darkness Down there lies the past Down there my conscience Kinda kicked my a** You got me runnin' for cover Runnin' from bein' me You got me runnin' for cover For cryin' out loud I hear them moanin' from distant lands Have some hookers shut 'em up with some swollen glands Now beggin's changed, I guess you'll do Just a hood rat all jacked off and tangled up in blue There's blood at home, there's blood on my street How am I to smile in complete defeat? Well, I'm jumpin' into limbo, tryin' to feel alive I'm jumpin' into limbo and I like it You got me runnin' for cover Runnin' from bein' me You got me runnin' for cover For cryin' out loud Into the quiet dusk I see curvy clouds chokin' up on irony I give it a pause and I break to the left But I'm wasted and I can't seem to catch my breath Here I go, just one more time Findin' out what's goin' on with the party line Well, I'm jumpin' into limbo tryin' to feel alive I'm jumpin' into limbo and I like it You got me runnin' for cover Runnin' from bein' me You got me runnin' for cover For cryin' out loud
