[Kurt Vile - Bassackwards lyrics]
What's in realwhat's in real time? Ha ha ha
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 awhile
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 wasn't 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
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
(Strumming 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
Just the way things is these days
Just the way they come out these days
Just the way things come out yeah, c'mon
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 awhile
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 wasn't 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
