Just A Job To Do

It's no use saying that it's alright, it's alright.But where were you after midnight, midnight.Heard a Bang, Bang, Bang; Down they goIt's just a job you doCos the harder they run, and the harder they fall.I'm coming down hard on you.Now no-one saw what you looked like, what you looked likeLike a stranger you came out of the night, out of the nightCos someone put the word on you, and I hope my aim is true.Cos I got a name, and I got a number, I gotta line on youI got a name, and I got a number, I'm coming after youNow don't keep saying that it's alright, it's alright,It seems you went just a little too far this timeHeard a Bang Bang Bang, and down you go,It's just a job I do,Cos the harder you run the harder you fall,I'm coming down hard on you, hard on you - I hope my aim is true.I got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on youI got a name, and I got a number, and I'm coming after youKeep running, Keep running; city to cityEven if you're innocent,You can cause too much embarrassmentAnd though your heart is breaking,And you know there's no mistaking.Cos you feel your life line breaking (keep running, keep running)You can feel your hands are shaking (keep running, keep running)And no-one answers the telephoneYou can never never ever go home aloneand though your heart is achingand you know there's no mistaking.The footsteps close behind.Now don't pretend that you sleep at night, but sleep tightAnd can't you feel that the time is right, it's alright.Heard a Bang Bang Bang, and down you goOh no-one really caresCos the harder you run, and the harder you fall.I'm coming down hard on you, hard on you - I'm hoping that my aim istrue.I got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on youI got a name, and I got a number, I'm coming after youI got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on you
