Genesis — 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 go It's just a job you do Cos 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 like Like a stranger you came out of the night, out of the night Cos 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 you I got a name, and 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 hope my aim is true I got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on you I got a name, and I got a number, and 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 aching 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 telephone You can never never ever go home alone And though your heart is aching And you know there's no mistaking The footsteps close behind Now don't pretend that you sleep at night, but sleep tight And can't you feel that the time is right, it's alright Heard a Bang Bang Bang, and down you go Oh no-one really cares Cos 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 is true I got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on you I got a name, and I got a number, I'm coming after you I got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on you I got a name, and I got a number, I got a job to do
