Shot through the heart
And you're to blame
Darling, you give love a bad name
(Who's bad) (bad name)
(Who's bad) (bad name)
An angel's smile is what you sell
You promise me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passion's a prison, you can't break free
Whoa, you're a loaded gun
Whoa, there's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done
Shot through the heart
And you're to blame
You give love a bad name (who's bad)
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love (who's bad) a bad name
You paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A school boy's dream, you act so shy
You're very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye
Whoa, you're a loaded gun
Whoa, there's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done
Shot through the heart
And you're to blame
You give love a bad name (who's bad)
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love a bad name
Shot through the heart
And you're to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
Shot through the heart
And you're to blame
You give love a bad name (who's bad)
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love a bad name
