Boomerang (1982)

Time has a way of running out
Soon there'll be more to think about
Any day I'll have to go

You only see the bottom line
Pay what you owe you're way behind
There's a way I think you know

I didn't mean to run
I didn't try to hide
But I was under the gun
Right in the line of fire

You had me backed against the wall
I tried to beg, you made me crawl
Get away, let me be

Pressure all the time
Can I tow the line?
Will I find a way to break free?

I didn't mean to run
I didn't try to hide
But I was under the gun
Right in the line of fire

Pressure all the time
Can I tow the line?
Will I find a way to break free?

I know your kind with just a glance
No alibi, no second chance
Then you say the time has come

There's no defense against the call
Take what you want. You take it all
I don't wanna play this game at all

I didn't mean to run
I didn't try to hide
But I was under the gun
But I was under the gun
