[Verse 1]
You got your head on backwards, baby, you don't know where you're at
Got your head on backwards, baby, watch out or you'll fall flat
Yeah, instead of sayin' "hi!" to the people that you meet
You oughta say "goodbye" as you're walkin' down the street

[Chorus]
You got your head on backwards, baby
And you're gonna hit the ground, yeah
Well, when you finally fall down, baby
I don't want to be around

[Verse 2]
Well, people been askin' me what's wrong with you
Uh, they can't understand all them crazy things you do
I got something to say and I'm sayin' it out loud
You better shape up, baby, and get down off of your cloud

[repeat Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Well, you sure look funny, girl, you're sure lookin' strange
You can't stay this way, no, you just gotta change
The way you're walkin', talkin', it ain't lookin' right
The way that you been actin' is too far out of sight

[repeat Chorus]

[Coda]
Yeah, baby, you got your head on backwards... Yeah
You don't know what's happenin', uh-uh
No, man, you're wrong...
You're dead wrong, 'cause you know why?
'Cause your head's on backwards, it's all funny lookin'
You don't know? Yeah, that's right, backwards, flat backwards!
Yeah! Huh!
