lyrics

Sent it at ten from the tram stop glow

To a dead-end number I didn’t know

Your name came up in that blue-lit bleed

You texted back, said, “Yeah, I’m what you need”

My thumb slipped, your number hit the screen

One cheap mistake, one messy machine

You wrote, “Come out,” and I grabbed my coat

Woolworths bag, blue pen, same dumb note

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

You called me in, and I came through

At seven-thirteen on Brunswick Street

You were leaning by the servo doors

Got gum on your boot, a split on your lip

And a grin like you’d done this before

My phone buzzed hard in my jacket pocket

Your second text said, “Don’t you block it”

I laughed so loud at the cracked screen light

Then I followed you into the night

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

You called me in, and I came through

You were meant for some bloke with a van

But he never showed with his stupid plan

So I got your chips, you got my name

And we burned that mix-up into flame

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

Wrong number, right night

You called me in, and I came through
