Shot in the Dark - Utopia

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
