lyrics

It's called a waste, what I was doing,
throwing away this song.
Backward lyrics are funny,
maybe once.

But, now I feel I've got another one in me.
Just need to squeeze it out.
If I can pull it off, I will.

For a minute, it was an amusing
concept for the next to last track.

But, now I feel I've got another one in me.
Whether it's good or not
if I can pull it off, I will.

I will

It's uninspired, but over random crap,
an improvement, true, but over random crap.

Need to appear invested
and enunciate.

How what that?

For a minute, it might be amusing,
but, maybe not.
