Just a job to do

No use saying that it´s alright, it´s alright.
Where were you after midnight, midnight.
Heard a Bang, Bang, Bang; Down they go
It´s just a job you do
Cos the harder they run, the harder they fall.
I´m coming down hard on you.
No-one saw what you looked like, what you looked like
Like a stranger coming out of the night, out of the night
Someone put the word on you, I hope my aim is true.
I got a name, I got a number, I gotta line on you
I got a name, I got a number, I´m coming after you
Don´t keep saying that it´s alright, it´s alright,
It seems you went just a little too far this time
Heard 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 got a name, I got a number, I got a line on you
I got a name, I got a number, I´m coming after you
Keep running, Keep running; city to city
Even if you´re innocent,
You can cause too much embarrassment
And though your heart is breaking,
And you know there´s no mistaking.
For you feel your life line breaking
Can feel your hands are shaking
No-one answers the telephone
You can never even go home alone
and though your heart is breaking
and you know there´s no mistaking.
The footsteps close behind.
Don´t pretend that you sleep at night, sleep tight
Can´t you feel that the time is right, it´s alright.
Heard a Bang Bang Bang, down you go
No-one really cares
Cos the harder you run, the harder you fall.
I´m coming down hard on you.
I got a name, I got a number, I got a line on you
I got a name, I got a number, I´m coming after you
Where were you after midnight, midnight.
Heard a Bang, Bang, Bang; Down they go
It´s just a job you do
Cos the harder they run, the harder they fall.
I´m coming down hard on you.
No-one saw what you looked like, what you looked like
Like a stranger coming out of the night, out of the night
Someone put the word on you, I hope my aim is true.
I got a name, I got a number, I gotta line on you
I got a name, I got a number, I´m coming after you
Don´t keep saying that it´s alright, it´s alright,
It seems you went just a little too far this time
Heard 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 got a name, I got a number, I got a line on you
I got a name, I got a number, I´m coming after you
Keep running, Keep running; city to city
Even if you´re innocent,
You can cause too much embarrassment
And though your heart is breaking,
And you know there´s no mistaking.
For you feel your life line breaking
Can feel your hands are shaking
No-one answers the telephone
You can never even go home alone
and though your heart is breaking
and you know there´s no mistaking.
The footsteps close behind.
Don´t pretend that you sleep at night, sleep tight
Can´t you feel that the time is right, it´s alright.
Heard a Bang Bang Bang, down you go
No-one really cares
Cos the harder you run, the harder you fall.
I´m coming down hard on you.
I got a name, I got a number, I got a line on you
I got a name, I got a number, I´m coming after you
