Little Black Backpack
Stroke 9 Lyrics
Well I know it, it's a shame
A shame I can't show it,
I see it, I can see
It now but I'm so far below it
Don't want to, don't want to talk about it,
I say why not,
Don't want to think about it,
I say there's got to be some good reason
For your little black backpack up,
Smack, turnaround he's on his back and
Don't want to tango with you,
I'd rather tangle with him,
I think I'm gonna bash his head in,
And this shouldn't concern
You except that just don't expect to get
Your bloody black backpack back
I can feel you, yes I can what about that
Don't you understand,
And I sense you,
Its something sensual but its less than I
Planned
Don't want to, don't want to talk about it,
I say why not,
Don't want to think about it,
I say there's got to be some good reason
For your little black backpack up,
Smack, turnaround he's on his back and
Don't want to tango with you,
I'd rather tangle with him,
I think I'm gonna bash his head in,
And this shouldn't concern
You except just don't expect to get
Your bloody black backpack back
You're trying to find a reason for the way you feel tonight,
You're mind is lined with layers of lead,
Have you heard one thing that I've said
Don't want to talk about it,
I say why not,
Don't want to think about it,
I say there's got to be some good reason
For your little black backpack up,
Smack, turnaround he's on his back and
Don't want to tango with you,
I'd rather tangle with him,
I think I'm gonna bash his head in,
And this shouldn't concern
You except just don't expect to get
Your bloody black backpack back (twice)

You see a dude kissing your girlfriend, so you beat his ass, and in one last act of defiance, you steal your now-ex-girlfriend's black backpack. Yeah, that's life ... Great song.

I remember back when I saw this band in concert way back in 2000 with Vertical Herizon...Stroke 9 was opening for them and they totally upstaged V.H. that night...it was such an awesome concert. I shook the lead singers hand when they were onstage performing....ahh such good times and such a great band!! LONG LIVE STROKE 9!!
