Bassackwards

I was on the beach but I was thinking about the bay Got to the bay but by then I was far away I was on the ground but looking straight into the sun But the sun went down and I couldn't find another one For a while For because it was an all-burning feeling in my chest To fill the void Of a long night unwatched by, well, the sun Until the morn Until when, well, the sun's reborn And so am I From all the scorn buried deep Within the psyche of my soul I was standing down but I was also on the run In my mind I was on the radio talking with a friend of mine There was no format because well, we like it like that He was out of his mind and I was way out of mine Then everything went backwards With words coming out Bassackwards And I appreciate him to the utmost degree I was on the beach but I was thinking about the bay Got to the bay but by then I was far away I was on the ground but looking straight into the sun But the sun went down and I couldn't find another one For a while To fill the void Until the morn Then everything went backwards I mean, phrases flying out Bassackwards, yeah I was on the moon but more so, I was in the grass So I was chilling out but with a very drifting mind So I was on the ground circa planet earth But outta sorts, but I snapped back, baby Just in time to jot it down and come around It's always nice to see you And I came around It's always nice to see you here when I come around Or when I'm plain come, comin' down Then everything goes backwards I mean, everything moving out Then everything goes backwards I mean, everything oozing out Bassackwards (Strummin' a Chet Atkins) I was standing up But you know I hate to still stoop you down To my level Bassackwards And I appreciate her to the utmost degree Then everything went backwards I mean, words coming out Bassackwards, yes It's just the way things is these days Just the way they come out these days Just the way things come out Yeah, come on To the utmost degree
