I Just Like To Be Bad

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I knew her when she was a secretary

She always refused to get married

She tried not to smile or meet your eyes

She knew if she did you'd start those lies

I busted a sweat every day on the dock

She sang to herself as she worked for the boss

She'd process words to the dance music station

Every stroke of her fingers an invitation

She said i just like to be bad

First names only and one night stands

I just like to be bad

Forget the face, i want the hands

And i kept trying whisperin' slow and special

Something eternal and something essential

I don't give up but i ain't a stalker

I guess i'm just an easy talker

She said i just like to be bad

First names only and one night stands

I just like to be bad

Forget the face, i want the hands

And i made sure that i held her gaze

And i made sure she couldn't look away

And i put aside all those tired old lies

She read the truth, see it in my eyes

She said i just like to be bad

First names only and one night stands

I just like to be bad

Forget the face, i want the hands

But only for you i just like to be bad

But only for you i just like to be bad

But only for you i just like to be bad

I wanna be there for you i just like to be bad

I wanna be there for you i just like to be bad

I wanna be there for you, babe i just like to be bad

I wanna be there for you i just like to be bad

I wanna be for only you i just like to be bad
