Run For Cover

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
What have you gathered to report to your progenitors?Are your excuses any better than your senator's?He held a conference and his wife was standing by his sideHe did her dirty but no-one diedI saw Sonny Liston on the street last nightBlack-fisted and strong singing Redemption SongHe motioned me to the skyI heard heaven and thunder cryRun for coverRun while you can, baby, don't look backYou gotta run for coverDon't be afraid of the fear, that's a played out trap, manYou know you're not the only oneAnd don't look back, just run for coverWhat are you waiting for, a kiss or an apology?You think by now you'd have an A in toxicologyIt's hard to pack the car when all you do is shame usIt's even harder when the dirtbag's famousI saw my mother on the street last nightAll pretty and strong, singing 'the road is long'I said 'Momma I know you've tried'But she fell on her knees and criedRun for coverRun while you can, baby, don't look backYou gotta run for coverDon't be afraid of the fear, that's a played out trap, manI know you're not the only oneAnd don't look back, just run for coverAnd there was nothing she wouldn't giveJust to trust him with her nightmares, with her dreamsShe's running, she's runningJust to trust himHe got a big smile, he's fake newsJust run for cover, you've got nothing left to loseRun for coverRun while you can, baby, don't look backYou gotta run for coverDon't be afraid of the fear, that's a played out trap, manYou know you're not the only oneAnd don't look back, just run for coverRunRunRun for cover
