Lyric Back To Basics
We re going back, back to basics
We re going back, back to the neighborhood
We re going back
I was 17 when I left home
Went as far away as I could get
Headed southward to the sunshine
To meet people I hadn t met
Put my faith in situations
Anything to reject the past
Situations turned sour
False prophecy never lasts
We re going back, back to basics
We re going back, back to reality
We re going back
Uh-oh I found trouble
When the mirror started changing
I started reading started believing
Silly magazines
Did me nothing got me nowhere
Except confusion such confusion
I m going back to what meant something
When I was a litle boy
We re going back, back to basics
We re going back, back to the neighborhood
We re going back
That s my story if you didn t like it
I m so sorry we ll have to agree to disagree
If you think I m gonna be hurt by it
That s the difference between you and me
We re going back, back to basics
We re going back, back to the neighborhood
We re going back
I was 17 when I left home
Went as far away as I could get
Headed southward to the sunshine
To meet people I hadn t met
Put my faith in situations
Anything to reject the past
Situations turned sour
False prophecy never lasts
We re going back, back to basics
We re going back, back to reality
We re going back
Uh-oh I found trouble
When the mirror started changing
I started reading started believing
Silly magazines
Did me nothing got me nowhere
Except confusion such confusion
I m going back to what meant something
When I was a litle boy
We re going back, back to basics
We re going back, back to the neighborhood
We re going back
That s my story if you didn t like it
I m so sorry we ll have to agree to disagree
If you think I m gonna be hurt by it
That s the difference between you and me
We re going back, back to basics
