Overall Meaning

The literary technique of using everyday phrases or idioms in a non-literal way is frequently used in song lyrics. The lyrics of Motel Connection's "Hit And Run" are a perfect example of this technique. The lyrics talk about hitting a man, hitting the right road, hitting back, giving a fight, and hunting up. When combined together, these phrases create an atmosphere of unpredictable danger and anarchy.


The violent nature of the lyrics is shown through the use of the term "hit and run." This phrase, when used in the context of an actual hit and run accident, means that a driver hits a pedestrian or another vehicle and then drives away from the scene without giving any information about the accident. The metaphorical use of this phrase in the song suggests that the singer is a fugitive, running from the law or someone he wronged.


The lyrics of the chorus, "Hit back, give fight, hunt up," suggest that the singer is not a victim but a fighter. The singer is willing to fight back, to hit hard and not to give up. This attitude creates an atmosphere of adrenaline and danger, making the song a thrilling listen.
