Just A Job To Do Lyrics

Genesis 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 got a 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, 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
