It’s al-right But where were you after midnight. Midnight But a Bang Bang Bang and down they go. It’s just a job you do. Cos the harder they run and the harder they fall I’m comin’ down hard on you. Verse 2: (Main Riff) Bm Now no-one saw what you look like. What you look like Like a stranger you came out of the night. Out of the     night.     Has some-one put the word on you     I hope my aim is true Chorus: Cos I got a name and I got a number I got a lot on you I got a name and I got a number I’m comin’ after you Verse 3: (Main Riff) X2 Bm Now don’t keep sayin’ that it’s al-right. It’s al-right It seems you went just a little too far. This time But a Bang Bang Bang and down you go It’s just a job I do Cos the harder you run and the harder you fall I’m comin’ down hard on you     hard on you       I hope my aim is true Chorus: Cos I got a name and I got a number I got a lot on you I got a name and I got a number I’m comin’ after you Bridge:                  Keep a runnin’ keep runnin’ 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 But you feel your lifeline breaking You can feel your hands are shaking     And no-one answers the telephone You can never never never go home alone And though your heart is aching And you know there’s no mistaking      The footsteps close behind            Verse 4: (Main  Riff) Bm Now don’t pretend that you sleep at nightand sleep tight And can’t you feel that the time is right it’s al-right But a Bang Bang Bang and down you go Well no-one really cares Cos the harder you run and the harder you fall I’m comin’ down hard on you hard on you           I’m hoping that my aim is true Chorus: I got a name and I got a number I got a lot on you I got a name and I got a number I’m comin’ after you I got a name and I got a number I got a lot on you I got a name and I got a number I got a job to do (CHORDS) Esus4 X799(10)X

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque la traque d'un individu, avec un ton à la fois déterminé et menaçant. La voix du narrateur souligne un sentiment d'urgence et de justice, mettant en avant la nécessité d’accomplir une mission, peu importe les circonstances. Le protagoniste démontre une confiance certaine, prêt à affronter celui qu'il piste, tout en faisant preuve d’un profond désespoir face à la situation. Le contexte peut être perçu comme celui d'un affrontement moral où la frontière entre le bien et le mal s’embrouille. La mélodie accompagne cette tension, soulignant le passage d'une vie tranquille à une existence marquée par la somme de choix compromettants. C'est une réflexion sur les conséquences de nos actes et la manière dont ils peuvent nous rattraper.
