Mike Love (Reggae)
Backbiter
[Verse 1]
I had your back since back in the day
But now when you see me coming you just turn away
We used to jam when you were a no name
But now you can’t even give me the time of day
I thought you were my friend
But now I see your true colors
I let you in my home
You had the nerve to call me brother
But now I see you’re just a backbiter

[Verse 2]
You’re always right there to take a puff
When somebody else is passing the spliff around
But when we’re hurting and the times get tough
Its funny how we never seem to see your face around
I caught you in a lie
And now you’re searching for excuses
Just look me in the eye
Because I already know the truth is
That you’re nothing but a backbiter
So don’t you come around
Don’t come around no more

[Verse 3]
I guess the money was enough to make you turn your nose up
And all them bright lights flashing must’ve messed your mind up
But when the money’s gone and the spotlight fades
Who you gonna cry to
Who’s gonna believe your charade?
[Bridge]
And when ya comin’ home
You’ll find everything has changed

[Verse 4]
So don’t you come around
Don’t come around no more
So don’t you come around
Don’t come around no more

Backbiter
Where you gonna run to
Backbiter
Who you gonna cry to now?
Backbiter
Who’s gonna believe you
