about
Many musicians before me, wrote songs about backstabbing and what it does to other people' lives. On amazon alone you’ll find 369 song entries in the category MP3-Downloads, regarding the topic Backstabber. Tina Turner, Backyard Babies, Dresden Dolls and Ke$ha, just to name a few artists, with different styles and backgrounds, felt a need to sing about double-crossing.
The lyrics of Backstabber are telling a true story, in which especially two persons played woefully starring roles.
lyrics
backstabber
it´s a pity, it´s a pity, but you ain’t so pretty
go lie, low guy, go lie, you bloody guy
your papa bought you brand new - Gibson guitar
´cause you promised him to be the next rock’n roll superstar
you dream to hit the charts
you wanna rock the arts
you wish to win those hearts
hello, hello how you gonna do that now
finally you’re leaving all your friends behind
they are not of your kind
and i know you screw them all
´cause you´re a backstabber
you disdain your bandmates, they are disgraced
but banana republics will never ever win this war
you use your golden spoon
you claim the silver moon
you still sing out of tune
i know you know we all know that you are a spoiled boy
finally you’re leaving all your friends behind
they are not of your kind
and i know you screw them all
´cause you´re a backstabber
now you play in a casting band
you pretend to be the one
but we know this is not true
we all know what you really do
finally you’re leaving all your friends behind
they are not of your kind
and i know you screw them all
´cause you´re a backstabber
you´re a backstabber
you´re a backstabber
