Shot In The Dark Lyrics

  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
