The Streets - Phone Is Always In My Hand Lyrics

My phone is always in my hand
If you think I'm ignoring you, I am
My phone is always in my hand
If you think I'm ignoring you, I am

Few of us are up for living in the next world war
So do not disturb a woman that you are not ready for
Cheat on her into the smoke
Leaving the club while it's sunny
If you're treating her like it's a joke
She'll leave you like it's funny
I'll always give you advice when you need it
And sometimes when you don't
Swim in ice waters when the convo gets close
If I say I'm five minutes away and you believe me
That's your problem
I only want one thing from her, personality
Which is good because she certainly has three
He who angers you conquers
This ain't playtime, this ain't conkers
This could get Dizzee, pre Bonkers
Grime kids mosh now, they don't conga

My phone is always in my hand
If you think I'm ignoring you, I am
My phone is always in my hand
If you think I'm ignoring you, I am (yo)

I said I had my phone on Do Not Disturb
Just saw your calls and read your text
When I shout her back, she's shouting back
When I press decline she can't accept that
My phone is always in my hand
Then out of the blue start seeing red
Thinks I'm out of order then it gets out of hand
'Cause she can't take the disrespect
I ignore man, but I'm not ignorant
I'm too busy indulging the internet
I'm online but I appear offline
Quick to respond but slow to reply
Don't why I unlock my phone
But lock my phone back in a blink of an eye
For screen time I was on my iPhone ex's eye
I'm on ten percent but might let it die (oh my)
Whoa, FaceTime missed calls from the gang but they don't watch face
'Cause they know how I stay
Try call twice, get no answer then call it a day cah my

Phone is always in my hand
If you think I'm ignoring you, I am
My phone is always in my hand
If you think I'm ignoring you, I am

I draw my finger down the skin of my cheek
Like the tear that runs down in your f*cking dreams
We have no time to lose this
Heavy in our stomach
Time is an illusion especially at lunch
Everyone's around when times are amazing
But do they wait with you when you're tying your laces?
You're ignoring me
But you're watching my stories
I'll say this again and I'll say this to another
It ain't underhanded and it ain't unloving
But don't try to understand ladies, brother
Ladies understand ladies and they hate each other

My phone is always in my hand
If you think I'm ignoring you, I am
My phone is always in my hand
If you think I'm ignoring you, I am
