BOOMERANG

Keep on pushing me until you see me fall
Keep on kicking me until you see me crawl
Keep on getting at me to see if I cave in
Keep on laughing at me everytime you win

You can cut me down anyway that you want
Nothing that you do to keep me down
Will ever make me lose my ground
It´s not a question of if or where
But of how and when
Everything that you do to me comes back at you
Like a boomerang

Bang – bang – bang – like a boomerang
Bang – bang – bang – like a boomerang

Keep on jacking me around with my name on your payroll
Keep on wasting my time as if it was your own
Keep on playing on me while holding all the cards
Keep on patting my back and then taking me apart

Keep on picking my pocket and mucking up my mind
Keep on blaming the world to justify your lies
Keep on hiding your schemes in a fog of idle talk
Keep on making your treaties and writing them in chalk
You can cut me down anyway that you want
Nothing that you do to keep me down
Will ever make me lose my ground
It´s not a question of if or where
But of how and when
Everything that you do to me comes back at you
Like a boomerang

Mother taught me all that she knew
About duty and respect and gratefulness
She said I would love my life
If I only learned to know my place
Now if this is mine I´m not gonna stay
I´m not scared of anything behind these walls I´ll have to scale
And if I fall I won´t crawl at your feet
I´m gonna get back up
Before you push me down
This ain´t no peaceful place for me while you´re around
You can cut me down anyway that you want
Nothing that you do to keep me down
Will ever make me lose my ground
It´s not a question of if or where
But of how and when
Everything that you do to me comes back at you

You can cut me down anyway that you want
Nothing that you do to keep me down
Will ever make me lose my ground
It´s not a question of if or where
But of how and when

Everything that you do to me comes back
Everything that you do to me comes back
Everything that you do to me comes back at you

Like a boomerang
