Backwards Lyrics by Ashley Argota

Ashley (Reissue)

2008

[Verse 1]
Rolling up in his shiny black Benz
Talking on his iPhone
Won't leave me alone oh no
Tired of his chat box flying
Always trying out the latest crazy ringtone
Why won't he go home? (go home)
I know he thinks he is the hottest
While he is outside cooling
Don't think that he's the weather
Girls like me won't be fooling
Walking in a star bucks
Only thinking about his thirst
Let the door slam in my face
Forgot it's ladies first!

[Chorus]
Backwards, backwards
I think he's got it backwards
My daddy told me all about
The things that I can do without
Backwards, backwards
I think he's got it backwards
Put your nonsense on the shelf
You think you know how to impress a girl

[Post-Chorus]
(Ha, not really, enough about me)
Backwards
(I wanna know what you think about me)
(Oh, no!)

[Verse 2]
He was late
But looking great
Sportin' and fancy clothes
But without a rose
And that's how that goes (Mmm mmm!)
I'm glad I buy his smile
White and brightened
When he says let's catch a flick
And you'll be my chick (No way!)
I heard his favorite pick up line
Now you can trust me, baby
All of the girls gather round
I guess they must be crazy
Daddy didn't raise a fool
I see where this is going
Open up the door wide
Cause his head keeps growing

[Chorus]
Backwards, backwards
I think he's got it backwards (Yeah yeah)
My daddy told me all about
The things that I can do without (hey hey)
Backwards, backwards
I think he's got it backwards
Put your nonsense on the shelf
You think you know how to impress a girl

Backwards, backwards (You think you're so cool)
I think he's got it backwards
My daddy told me all about
The things that I can do without (And I see right through you)
Backwards, backwards
I think he's got it backwards
Put your nonsense on the shelf
You think you know how to impress a girl

[Bridge]
Egotistic, narcissitic
That doesn't work for me
(What ya talking about girl?)
Talk about being smug over-ambitious
Humble with a C-N-T
Now the blazing sun
And the world does not revolve
Around you, can't see what you...
Walking past the store window
You see no collection
Can't miss the opportunity
To check out your reflection
Never met a mirror
That you didn't truely love
Your body can't get close
Cause you're all you're thinking of!

[Chorus]
Backwards, backwards (Oh!)
I think he's got it backwards
My daddy told me all about (Oooohhohh oohh)
The things that I can do without (Yeah yeah)
Backwards, backwards
I think he's got it backwards (ooooohohohh)
Put your nonsense on the shelf
You think you know how to impress a girl

Backwards, backwards (My daddy told me)
I think he's got it backwards
My daddy told me all about (He told me all about your kind)
The things that I can do without (Oh yeah)
Backwards, backwards (He told me)
I think he's got it backwards (He really told me)
Put your nonsense on the shelf (You better go home)
You think you know how to impress a girl
