Back To The Wall

(album: Temperamental - 1988)

We are living in desperate times
These are desperate times my dear
There's no way out of here
There's no way out my dear
I've been holding back all my tears
Just so the pressure don't show
Like a time bomb ticking away
I might blow up some day

Don't push me, don't shove
You better watch what you do

[Chorus:]
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything at all
When my back's to the wall
I might take any chance at all
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything

You've got the upper hand
Well I've got nothing to lose
When I'm trapped in a corner like this
I might light a fuse
There's no way out of here
There's no way out my dear

Don't push me, don't shove
You better watch what you do

[Chorus:]
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything at all
When my back's to the wall
I might take any chance at all
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything, anything

Don't push me too far
You better run for your life

[Chorus:]
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything at all
When my back's to the wall
I might take any chance at all
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything at all
When my back's to the wall
I might do anything at all

I've got nothing to lose
I might light a fuse
I've got nothing to lose
I might light a fuse
Yeah, yeah...
Look it out
Don't come any closer
