They Won’t Know What Hit Them
Lyrics and Music by Woody Russell (11/09)

______________________________________________________
Bring ‘round the car, yes we’re ready; we’re ready, ready, ready to roll
We’re gonna cross that bridge like some kind of dawn patrol
I’ll steal some hearts, you take the souls
And we’ll escape in the afterglow
They won’t know what hit them

The very first move has got to be, has got to be, got to be bold
Stay on the prowl, leave the trail; leave your trail cold
I’ll grease the wheels, you shovel coal
And we’ll escape down the rabbit hole
They won’t know what hit them

I’ll keep an alibi close at hand
You keep the key to the mini-bar
We’ve got a solid exit strategy plan
Just keep the motor running on the getaway car
I’ll steal some hearts, you take the souls
And we’ll escape in the afterglow
They won’t know what hit them
I’ll grease the wheels, you shovel coal
And we’ll escape down the rabbit hole
They won’t know what hit them
