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 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
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

Fun Lovin' Criminals Running For Cover Comments
This puts a huge smile on my face!
Read the comments and thought nah this can’t be that good a crowd, so I watched the video and yeah that’s some epic stuff.
The smile on the lead singers face when he sees the crowing bouncing says it’s all. 💯 amazing! What a feeling that must have been for the band
Or What? classic
I remember being dragged along to a FLC gig in Newport way back, 2001, a my mate had a spare ticket. I went along not expecting much (didn't know much about them apart from a couple of the hits) but they were on fire, and they bloody rocked the place, I vividly remember Bombin the L, pure heavy metal, superb gig 🤘
Makes me jump up and down, and I'm 47
What a crowd! Glasto in the 90s. Also The Levellers One Way from 1994, 2 of my fave vids for the atmosphere
The greatest 3 minutes ever at Glastonbury. And the Criminals handled it like true pros.
Really that evening FLC rocked the World !!!
Back in the day when everyone used to just enjoy their time at the festival rather than filming everything with mobile phones
I was in that crowd, It was a warm summers night, sound quality was great, no wind to carry it off and everyone seemed to be in the moment, the band were loving it as you can see, and I got in for nothing, camera phones existed then but can you see them,
There will be never a better crowd than this one!
Espectacular FLC!!!!
Still a brilliant live band 20yrs later
Not one damn cell phone
I was in this crowd, they defo wasn't expecting the crowd to be this crazy, makes my hairs stand up watching it, miss the old glasto. Gomez was another great set from that year
before I read your comment I sent the link to a mate saying exact same thing about hair standing on end watching this!
@Fiskrond it was one of the hlights of the weekend 🤘
I was at the front there somewhere! .... and I don't like crowds lol ....awesomeness ..
I was in this crowd 😊
I was in this crowd 😊
Big hug Rebecca, from a friend in Costa Rica!
That’s the moment that you know you made the right decesion to learn to play an instrument
it don't get better than that...
And the kids are singing and jumping at the same god damn time! Huey Morgan!
So much better than the original version
everytime i watch this it reminds me why i give a damn
You see how the great the crowd where, into the music & band, now come 2002 onwards they just stand like statues & dull as Fcuk!
Off to see them tonight at Kentish Town O2, Cant Wait !!
How was the gig?
@Geneviève Gagnon Perhaps Stuart filmed it on his smartphone. LOL.
Holy fuuuuck look at the crowd!!! Sadly you just don't get that much anymore...
That crowd.... so awesome!
@1.47 is the face of guy that has just realised why he does what he does for a living.
MAN, that hit me too like a ton a bricks.
fukn epic crowd
Ugo can't stop smiling..the crowd is insane...love it
Got to b my best you tube live music vid
Wow waves of croud jump on ground. Nobody still jumping in concerts, everyones with smartphone what a shame.
Bring back old good days
Thats so stupid because
1. the sound and video quality sucks
2. there is a high quality concert movie available for free
3. you are busy with filming rather than listening to the music
It was so cool 😎 I was there!!! 20 years ago 😱
@Jankubist Jk And you're talking about what? I mean wtf?
@Rebecca lou Some are luckier than others. 😉
This looks fuckin mental
wow... just another reason to love this Country... xxx ace
BAM magera
I was lucky enough to be at this performance, a long time ago now but I remember it well, the energy was fantastic. Looking across the crowd jumping to the chorus hanging on to my brother, classic glasto:)
simon bealing me too. Great memories !! :-)
Me too!!!! 20 years ago now 😱
This right here is the greatest live performance you will find on youtube. The energy is insane. This is how rock shows should be
17 years of age I was at this festival and it was amazing! These days you just have a bunch of kids staring at their smartphones at concerts. It's just simply not the same !
Was the rest of the concert just as insane? We are about the same age and I too miss these days when it was about having fun.
I was 19...best period of my life...
When Glasto was great to go to That year there was 90 thousand over what Evis was supposed to have there 2000 there was over 300 thousand people After that year it all changed
pure rock and roll. simple, bygone days
I miss these times😣
That's the other stage. OMFG that's a big crowd.
Its the old Pyramid stage..you can see Glastonbury Tor behind the stage at 2.26
before camera phones fucked up gigs
Does astound me sometimes when people record gigs that are getting recorded for fucking tv
Damn what a crowd
Was pre-fence so anyone could basically come in to festival, it was just Anarchy lol, The year after was even worse, then the owner was told he had to put up a fence to limit people or lose his licence.
Love this performance.
