Do you still say your prayers little darling
Do you go to bed at night
Praying that tomorrow, everything will be allright
But tomorrow's fall in number in number one by one
You wake up and you're dying you don't even
know what from
Chorus:
Well they shot you point blank you been shot
in the back
Baby point blank you been fooled this time,
little girl that's a fact
Right between the eyes baby, point blank
Right between the pretty lies that they tell
Little girl you fell
You grew up where young girls they grow up fast
You took what you were handed and left behind
what was asked
But what they asked, baby, wasn't right
You didn't have to live that life
And I was gonna be your Romeo, you were gonna
be my Juliet
These days you don't wait on Romeos you wait
on that welfare cheque
And on all the pretty little things that you
can never have
And all the promises
Chorus:
That always end up point blank
Shot between the eyes
Whoa, point blank
Like little white lies you tell to ease the pain
You're walking in the sights, girl
Of point blank
And it's one false move and baby, the lights go out
Once I dreamed we were together again
Baby, you and me
Back home in those old clubs
The way we used to be
We were standing at the bar, it was hard to hear
The band was playing loud and you were shouting
something in my ear
You pulled my jacket off and as the drummer
counted four
You grabbed my hand and pulled me out on the floor
You just stood there and held me, then you
started dancing slow
And as I pulled you tighter I swore I'd never
let you go
Well, I saw you last night down on the avenue
Your face was in the shadows but I knew that
it was you
You were standing in the doorway out of the rain
You didn't answer when I called out your name
You just turned, and then you looked away
Like just another stranger waiting to get
blown away
Chorus:
Point blank
Right between the eyes
Whoa (Baby), point blank
Right between the pretty lies you fell
Point blank
Shot straight through the heart
Yeah, point blank
You've been twisted up 'til you've become
just another part of it
Point blank
You're walking in the sights
Point blank
Living one false move, just one false move
away (Point blank)
They caught you in their sights
(Oh) Point blank
Did you forget how to love, girl?
Did you forget how to fight? (Point blank)
They must have shot you in the head
'Cause point blank
Bang bang, baby, you're dead
