Was listening to Mary Wells song You Beat Me To The Punch, thought I knew it very well, always liked the insinuation that it was about a flirtation. That the narrator had their eye on someone and then, surprisingly, that person made the first move and she says, you beat me to the punch. Just noticed it is about something else – in the bridge she realizes he’s a player, she gets a hunch and leaves him first – beats him to the punch.
