Bum
written by Tanya Donelly

.

(oh yeah babe)
some lucky bum
took away my right to some
sweet honey love

look what's been done to me
look what i've become

in for the fight of your life today
i'm giving you a head start

you better run
bum
you better run
bum

look what you've done
what you've become
one unlucky bum

in for the fight of your life today
i'm giving you a head start

you better run
bum
you better run
bum

coo coo coo coo quiter
coo coo coo coo quiter

run for cover
run to win
what will end your suffering

i'm giving you a head start...

you better run
bum
you better run
bum

you better run
bum
you better run
bum

coo coo coo coo quiter
coo coo coo coo quiter
