Backwards Song (Verse 2)
The group Wee Sing released an alphabet song with the letters in reverse order. It is called ZYXs. It goes as follows:
- Z-Y-X-W-V-and-U--
- T-and-S-and-R-and-Q--
- P-O-N-M-L-K-J--,
- I-H-G-F-EDCBA-- (EDCBA said like LMNOP in alphabet song)
- Now I know my CBAs
- Next time won't you lead the way
Another version ends with "Now I know my ZYXs, let's all go and walk to Texas."
The Canadian children's TV series The Big Comfy Couch used a version of the song in the episode "Backwards".
Comedian Soupy Sales released a song in 1966 called "Backwards Alphabet" which contained the reverse alphabet in lyrical style.
In the opening scene of the 1992 episode of Martin, Martin sangs the song in the dark radio station in season 1's "Dead Men Don't Flush".

Famous quotes containing the word song:
“Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragonfly
Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky
So this winged hour is dropped to us from above.
Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower,
This close-companioned inarticulate hour
When twofold silence was the song of love.”
—Dante Gabriel Rossetti (18281882)
