Stuck In Reverse
I haven’t time to spin this verse
I guess I’ll write this in reverse
The gears got stuck, now I’m in trouble
The lever’s jammed, the clutch is rubble
I can’t go forward, not one inch
I’m done-for now, I’m in a pinch
The shifter’s wedged in “R” (for race)
My gears are strewn about the place
I must write backwards; What a Curse!
I haven’t time to spin this verse
