Lyrics Dave Edmunds

Dave Edmunds

Bad Is Bad

Went downtown to see my cousin

He plays guitar like a chainsaw buzzin'

In the crowd I see his mom and dad

I said, hey uncle, man your son is bad

Sometimes, sometimes bad is bad

I said cool is a rule but sometimes bad is bad

Across the street, a neon sign

All you can eat for a dollar ninety-nine

This old stew is the baddest in the land

But one dollar's worth was all that I could stand

Sometimes, sometimes bad is bad

I said cool is a rule, but sometimes bad is bad

I came back uptown to see my Marie

Nobody home, so I opened the door with my key

I love you baby was the note that I read

But there's a strange pair of shoes underneath the bed

Sometimes, sometimes bad is bad

I said cool is a rule, but sometimes bad is bad

I said cool is a rule, but sometimes bad is bad

I said cool is a rule, but sometimes bad is bad
