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 embarra**ment
And 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 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.
