Agit-pop meets trip-hop. And a hard head makes a hard edge too.
Running
Hammam waits for the border guard
His body sweats and the sun burns hard
In searing heat from the midday sun
He’ll soon become another chosen one
Running- the ground’s hard beneath your running feet
Running- the sun burns in the midday heat
High sky above the poppy fields
Dust breaks beneath the vehicle wheels
Loaded up with forbidden fruit
Full to ready with its golden juice
Running- the ground’s hard beneath your running feet
Running- the sun burns in the midday heat
Running come along and we’ll take the ride
Running come with me where the road is wide
Shy boy beneath the city-scape
Johnny sleeps emerging from the wait
Two planes flying overhead
Another dollar sent in from the dead
Running- the ground’s hard beneath your running feet
Running- the sun burns in the midday heat
I saw you there in the shadow of the street
Your knees shaking on your tired feet
Hands ties round the bloody knife
Another runner in the game of life
Running- the ground’s hard beneath your running feet
Running- the sun burns in the midday heat
