Violent Femmes

I'm Bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad

I was bad born, I'd be badder when I die

I'm bad when I am sober, I'm badder when I'm high

I'm bad when I feel good, I'm bad when I'm blue

I'm bad to myself, so I'll be bad to you

So I'll be bad to you

I should've been good, look at the trouble I've had

I would if I could but I'm just bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad

I'm, bad and I'm alive, I'll be badder when I'm dead

I'm bad in my body, man, I'm badder in the head

I'm bad in the bed

Something wrong from the start

Guilt in my mind, evil in my heart

Evil in my heart

I don't need to be happy, I don't care if I'm sad

I don't care about nothin' 'cause I'm

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad

Don't lend me a dollar, don't lend me a dime

Don't lend me your wife, she'll have a good time

I'm bad in my car, I'm badder when I'm home

I'm bad when I'm with you and I'm badder all alone

I'm a low down worm, I'm a conquering worm

I'm a blood-suckin' worm, I'm a slime baitin' worm

I'll put you on the hook and I'll watch you squirm

I could never learn any young turk's new tricks

I could never learn not to kick against the pricks

Things go from bad to worse, sometimes it makes me

Glad that I was born under the curse of being

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad

Don't lend me a dollar, don't lend me dime

Don't lend me your wife, she'll have a good time

Don't lend me a twenty, don't lend me a ten

If you lend me a hundred, you'll never see me again

What I would do? These are the very things I don't do

And what I would not do? Those are the things that I do

Who shall deliver from this body of death

It's not Mohammad and it's not Seth

I tried to be happy but it only made me sad

I wanted to be good but I'm just

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, bad, bad
