U Sound System* - The Emotional Hooligan
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
But we can only run till we tumble down

Everybody need food, clothes and shelter
Proper health care
And clean running water

Everybody need food, clothes and shelter
Proper health care
And clean running water

Blind eyes turn, looking over our shoulder
We can only run till we tumble down

From India to America
All over Europe and China
People are begging for food and shelter
Blind eyes turn looking over their shoulder

People are begging for food and shelter
Blind eyes turn looking over their shoulder

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
But we can only run till we tumble down

Everybody need food, clothes and shelter
Proper health care
And clean running water

Everybody need food, clothes and shelter
Proper health care
And clean running water

Blind eyes turn, looking over our shoulder
But we can only run till we tumble down
We can only run till we tumble down

Third world debtors default
Economies crash into slum
Debt takes a stranglehold
From poverty there's just no relief
Argentina's main export is beef
(How low can we go?)
While Brazil, the biggest debtor of all
Chops down the Amazonian trees
Listen

Everybody need food, clothes and shelter
Proper health care
And clean running water

Everybody need food, clothes and shelter
Proper health care
And clean running water

Blind eyes turn, looking over our shoulder
But we can only run till we tumble down

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
