Under Fire - Roy Wood

Somebody’s watching me from over in the corner

I see them every time I go downtown

I don’t know what they want from me, I wish they’d go away

We’re very nice until we both fall down, down, down

The fill is growing, overflowing through the alleyways

Don’t give me any room to hide at all

This mental barricade has pinned me up against the wall

The light, it moves away and I fall down, down, down

I’m under fire and I’ll never get out

Just like a refugee, I know they’re after me

I’m under fire and I’ll never get out

They know me instantly, find an escape for me

Right now

My time is full, please, if they leave some indication

It won’t be easy when I run to ground

Though every now and then I often wish they’d go away

I’ll never sleep until they all fall down, down, down

I’m under fire and I’ll never get out

Just like a refugee, I know they’re after me

I’m under fire and I’ll never get out

They know me instantly, find an escape for me

Right now

At noon I can’t sit by, I’ll leave some information

They spy in good and never hear a sound

Their faces moved into the glass inside their limousine

Only they can see me goin' down, down, down, down, down

I’m under fire and I’ll never get out

Just like a refugee, I know they’re after me

I’m under fire and I’ll never get out

They know me instantly, find an escape for me

Right now

I’m under fire and I’ll never get out

Just like a refugee, I know they’re after me

I’m under fire and I’ll never get out

They know me instantly, find an escape for me

I know they’re after me right now

(I'm under fire and I’ll never get out)

Ooh ooh ooh ooh, they’re coming after me

(I'm under fire, fire, and I’ll never get out)

Ooh ooh, oh no no no no

(tuo teg reven ll’I dna, erif, erif rednu m’I)

Ooh ooh ooh
