Over Backwards - The Kicks

Can we just play pretend?

You’ve got the signals to send

In the pencil skirt that you know how to work

Give me a mirror I’ll show you a flirt

Now over backward I’m bent

You try so hard for some guy

But you’re still left unsatisfied

If you’re so confused and you’re never amused

There ain’t a thing that I wouldn’t do

To make you sway tonight

Over backwards, twisted and spent

Right 'round her finger I’m already bent, yeah

Play me like I’m some kind of game

And make me think that you feel the same

You say some things in my ear

And know what I want to hear

In the back of my mind I want to decline

Say to myself «I'll be alright»

But I say «Yes» instead

I try so hard for the chase

But just can’t keep up the pace

No it’s not the same

When you put out the flame

Lay in the sun

I’ll stay in the rain

But still you call my name

Over backwards, twisted and spent

Right 'round her finger I’m already bent

Play me like I’m some kind of game

And make me think that you feel the same

Over backwards, twisted and spent

Right 'round her finger I’m already bent

Play me like I’m some kind of game

And make me think that you feel the same

Over backwards, twisted and spent

Right 'round her finger I’m already bent

Play me like I’m some kind of game

And make me think that you feel the same
