lyrics

Number not recognised, let’s try that again
Number not recognised it’s the third attempt
Is that a 684 or a 401
I’ve tried every possible combination

Got so many numbers in my phone
But I’d trade them all in for the one that you wrote down
I didn’t see you coming, like a cannon ball
You tear through my thoughts, I don’t sleep at all

Baby you're a hit and run
You fled the scene and went back to where you came from
You left devastation in your wake
Next time slam the brakes on

I didn't catch your name it’s so absurd
No place for lipstick marks in this digital world
I’m paranoid you didn’t want me to know
But if you didn’t like me it didn’t show

Got so many numbers in my phone
But I’d trade them all in for the one that you wrote down
I didn’t see you coming, like a cannon ball
You tear through my thoughts, I don’t sleep at all

Baby you're a hit and run
You fled the scene and went back to where you came from
You left devastation in your wake
Next time slam the brakes on

Now I see your tramp stamp
Baby must have hand cramp
Giving your digits out
To every boy scout that you see, including me
Recovering slowly from the hurt
You put your gears into reverse
To finish the job I’m dead as dillinger
I thought I would have suited ya

Baby you're a hit and run
You fled the scene and went back to where you came from
You left devastation in your wake
Next time slam the brakes on

Baby you're a hit and run
Left for dead and sure I’m not the only one
You left devastation in your wake
Next time slam the brakes on
