Steve Goodman - Talk Backwards şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Steve Goodman

albüm: No Big Surprise: The Steve Goodman Anthology


Hey everybody wherever you are
There's a new way of talking and it's gonna go far;
You take the letters in the words,
Turn 'em all around; you say the last ones first
And you check out the sound
Talk Backwards
I know what you're thinking;
That sounds strange
You've talked forward so long that it's hard to change
But it's just like metric once you get the drift
You twist your tongue and you give your palate a lift.
You take your favorite phrase,
And you read it in the mirror,
Practice that about a half a year,
And then sdrawkcab gnikiat mi em ta kool
You're a regular talking bassackwards fool
Talk backwards
Talking backwards is sweeping the nation
Talking backwards is the new sensation,
You amaze your friends when you start to rap
Don't say pass the butter, say rettub eht ssap.
Rettub eht ssap? Rettub eht ssap
And if you're out with a girl and she's a little bit shy
Don't say I love you; say Uoy evol I.
Uoy evol I and I always will,
Now see if that doesn't take off the chill
Talk Backwards
The other day now I was walking down the street
There's this little girl I thought I'd like to meet.
I said excuse me miss but
Sserd taht teg uoy erehw. thgin ta tuo emoc
Yeht srats ekil era hteet ruoy
And I said am I getting through to you yet
She said you're a gent in the first degree
And I love it when you talk backwards to me
Talk backwards
Never can tell, one of these nights
Those who talk backwards will demand their rights.
They'll rise up angry and get a solution
In the form of an amendment to the constitution,
That guarantees 'em freedom of reverse elocution;
And then every T.V. show that airs
Will have to be captioned for the forward impaired
Talk backwards
Talk backwards
Talk backwards
Talk backwards
