Pop Etc Backwards World
I can tell it wears you out
You deserve better now
But a loss is a loss
Any old way
You played by the rules
You kept every word
But no one ever heard
What you wanted to say
It's a backwards world
It's a backwards world
Upstream is forward
In a backwards world
When a man gets your respect
You know it won't buy him much
So maybe it's not
Worth as much as it once was
If the total of it all
Doesn't add up to an ounce
So when [?] then what is it for?
Yeah, what is it all for?
It's a backwards world
It's a backwards world
Upstream is forward
In our backwards world
Is this truly my faith?
Pray to the Lord my soul to take around, around, around
If you don't show me sign
Then it's up to me to find
It's a backwards world
It's a backwards world
Upstream is forward
In our backwards world
