Mr. Backwards, look back at how he acts
He's a monster who tells you all the facts
Watch his movements as he listens to himself
He's hurting, yet he's certain all is well

Oh, Mr. Backwards, don't you know?
(Don't you know, don't you know?)
You're really want what you don't
(Really want what you don't)
Oh, Mr. Backwards, don't you know?
