Lyric Shot In The Dark

Everyday it s the same old situation
I face the same old line of empty faces
Sit at my desk while the clock counts up my wages
Pick up my pay every Friday and take off like a
Shot in the dark

I took off like a shot in the dark
I split the scene like a shot in the dark
Ain t got no target, don t aim for no mark
Cause I m off like a shot in the dark

It was only a game when we first started
The novelty wore away and the fun departed
I can t live up anymore to those things I spouted
And if you say you feel the same way
I ll be off like a
Shot in the dark

There s no changes going down
There s no lesson to be found
Makes no sense to hang around
If that s all there is to that
(That s what she said)

Someone just tossed a bomb through
Kitchen window
And in the middle of a shoo-fly pie
Mama took off like a
Bat out of hell
She took off like a shot in the dark
