Lyrics: Creepy Crawling

Echo of light fingers, Cold comfort blankets, Steeped in creeping anger, Flatfoot comes poking, Compounding my misery, Grinding pestle and mortar, Adding insult to injury.
If only this, if only that,If only in my guts -Creepy crawling, All the creeps go creepy crawling, Same thing every night. How can stealing candy from a baby Seem alright? Corvino, carrion crow, Skulking with his mobile, Slippery peat-bog eyes, Stick-on smiley smile, Small print like quicksand, Not a wooden leg to stand on, Sinking through my stomach, The ground beneath me gone, Free-fall, call Ophelia, Clutching at straw, Mixed with bloody feathers, From scruff of neck of crow. Johnny go! Johnny gone! Too much to drink in your tum-tum-tum. See this finger, see this thumb -See this fist and watch it come!

-Chumbawamba
