Running For Cover Lyrics - Welcome To Poppy's - Fun Lovin Criminals

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 ass 

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
