Backfired

Backfired

Your plan, your plan backfired

Backfired

My man, your plan backfired in your face

You came into my life to test me

Your diplomatic drag depressed me

The glitter in your eyes undressed me

You were polished slick, really thick

Wasting time dropping lines like, "I could get you into movies"

But we wound up at HoJo's for hamburgers to go

Backfired

Your plan backfired

Backfired

My man, your plan backfired in your face

To steal my mind was your objective

The way you spoke was too aggressive

The silly jokes were not impressive

Like a traveling salesman met farmer with three daughters, yet

All the quips were so suggestive

Then we ran down to HoJo's for hamburgers to go

Backfired

Your plan backfired

Backfired

My man, your plan backfired in your face

(Well, come here, my little dear, I've got what it takes)

(Give me just what I want and I'll give you a break)

So don't slip on your lips 'cause you're talking so fast

Buying for first, crying for last

(Well, come on, my little lady, don't shoot me down)

(I've got strong connections all over town)

Just drop to a dead stop

(What?)

Backfired

Your plan backfired

Backfired

My man, your plan backfired

You were polished slick really thick

Wasting time dropping lines

Backfired

A traveling salesman met a farmer with three daughters, yet

Backfired

Backfired

Your plan backfired

Couldn't work out, no

Backfired

My man, your plan backfired in your face

It backfired

Backfired

Your plan just backfired

No, no, it couldn't work out

Backfired

Better get a new line and try it again

Slick performance on demand

Backfired

You better back up fast and head out west

You may still collect

Backfired

It backfired

Your plan backfired

Too bad

Backfired

My man, your plan backfired

(Well, come here, my little dear, I've got what it takes)

(Give me just what I want and I'll give you a break)

So don't slip on your lips 'cause you're talking so fast

Buying for first, crying for last

(Well, come on, my little lady, don't shoot me down)

(I've got strong connections all over town)

Just drop to a dead stop
