    Back-back-backstabber

    Bored, stoned, sitting in your basement
    All alone, 'cause your little conversations
    Got around and lookie what we all found out
    (Lookie what we found) Lookie here, we all found out
    That you have got a set of loose lips
    Twisting stories, all because you're jealous
    Now I know exactly what you're all about (what you're all about)
    This is what you're all about

    Girl, you're such a backstabber (stabber)
    You're such a backstabber
    Oh girl, you're such a shit-talker
    And everybody knows it (and everybody knows it)
    Girl (girl), you're such a backstabber (stabber)
    You're such a backstabber
    Run your mouth more than anyone I've ever known
    And everybody knows it (and everybody knows it)

    Back-back-backstabber
    (Talk, talk, talk)
    (Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk)

    I'm sick and tired of hearing all about my life
    From other people with all of your lies
    Wrapped up so tight
    So maybe you should shut your mouth (shut your mouth)
    You never shut your mouth
    Honestly, I think it's kinda funny
    That you waste your breath talking about me
    Got me feeling kinda special, really
    This is what you're all about

    Girl, you're such a backstabber (stabber)
    You're such a backstabber
    Oh girl, you're such a shit-talker
    And everybody knows it (and everybody knows it)
    Girl (girl), you're such a backstabber (stabber)
    You're such a backstabber
    Run your mouth more than anyone I've ever known
    And everybody knows it (and everybody knows it)

    Katie's to the left, ripping my style
    Damn, Jeanie, why you gotta tell the secrets 'bout my sex life?
    All I ever did was drive your broke ass around
    Pick you up, take you out, when your car broke down

    Back-back-backstabber
    Stabber, stabber
    Back-back-backstabber

    Girl, you're such a backstabber (stabber)
    You're such a backstabber
    Oh girl (oh, girl), you're such a shit-talker
    And everybody knows it (and everybody knows it)
    Girl (oh, girl), you're such a backstabber
    (Taking and twisting and telling, so manipulating)
    Run your mouth more than anyone I've ever known
    And everybody knows it (and everybody knows it)

    (Talk, talk, talk) Back-back-backstabber
    (Taking and twisting and telling, so manipulating)
    Oh girl, talk, talk
    You're looking like a lunatic
    And everybody knows it (and everybody knows it)

    Everybody knows (back-back-backstabber)
    Yeah, you're looking like a lunatic
    And everybody knows (back-back-backstabber)
    Yeah, everybody knows (back-back-backstabber) Writer/s: David Gamson, Jon Ingoldsby, Kesha Sebert, Marc Nelkin

  • Yep from No@hi and @cupcakke stan, lily from heaven is right; kesha wrote this song about katy perry, even in the lyrics “katy’s to the left”, and she wrote this song about katy because their producer (who is the same person for both) raped BOTH of them, and kesha wanted to bring attention to it. however, to keep making money, katy didn’t follow through. therefore kesha calls her a “backstabber”
  • HiLily from heaven, How does this song sound anything like a rape story, she literally says GIRL you are such a back stabber.
  • Cupcakke StanLily from Heaven, as much of a heartbreaking event Dr. Luke raping Kesha was, this song is not, in any way, related to that. Please check your facts from sources other than TikTok.
  • Kesha Is The Best Singer from 7955I literally love this song so much, this song reminds me of me. #LOVE YOU KESHA!!!
  • MeowThis song reminds me of myself, I have a friend that I hate too much
  • AnonymousBruh i sent this soundtrack to my backstabbing ex friend >:(
  • Hey Im Souyathis song reminds of my backstabbing friends who talked about behind my back and made up lies
  • Someone from Somewherelove how tiktok made all of yall believe its abt kesha's producer r@aping her, honestly yall are the backstabbers /s
  • Tommydamn thats like my friends we play minecraft on twitch and i get blamed for EVERYTHING like someone blowing my house and its sick of them to do that
  • Cera from LampitTell that to my f__king friend
  • Lily from Heaventhis song is about how kesha was raped by her producer, that's what its about
