The only real substance is "Old Pink" being Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd's former singer (real name: Roger) who was legitimately institutionalized for psychotic breakdowns. This was just goofy gibberish, directed toward the "hunters" who search fruitlessly for backmasking that actually means anything. Roger! Carolyne's on the phone! / Okay." So, is that "funny farm" real? Do they actually want you to send your answer (to what question, they don't say) there to win a prize? Sadly, no. Please send your answer to Old Pink, care of the Funny Farm, Chalfont. Congratulations, you have just discovered the secret message. Reverse it, and you hear, "Hello, Luka (hunters). In their song "Empty Spaces," you can hear nonsense backmasking just before the song's actual lyrics play.
Pink Floyd's venture into backwards messaging is pure Floyd, in that it sounds more mysterious than it really is. This song is way more evil when backmasked, because anyone who's eaten beefaroni more than once will readily agree that stuff is Satan's favorite torture recipe. Halfway through, the band sings, "I hope you take this the wrong way / And misinterpret what I say / Rewind and let me reverse / Backwards like Judas Priest first did." If you do what he says and play the song backwards, you get the following how-do-you-do from the Lord of Lies himself: "Devil child will wake up and eat Chef Boyardee Beefaroni." It's the rare backwards-message song that starts out evil, instead of waiting for you to ruin your needle before breaking out the Satan. But before that, they released even more ridiculous tunes, like the ultra-sensitive "Lift Your Head Up High (And Blow Your Brains Out)," outright telling people to kill themselves if they hate their lives. The Bloodhound Gang is most famous for making their sexual escapades resemble the Discovery Channel as much as possible.
