Lyrics
Bad Guy
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.
A different attitude of mind
Is not something to be persecuted
No world Government knows
Justice and truth from organised crime
Do you think that someone telling you what's
Right and what's wrong means liberty? I don't
Film stars on the silver screen
If there's one thing I know from TV
Good things don't happen to ugly people
A perfect smile's a good guy thing
They get the girl and they always win
Good things don't happen to ugly people
You were born to be the bad guy
You could make the hero look a little beat inside
You know it's wrong but it feels so right
Nothing to lose if you're going to die
You were born to be the bad guy
You could make the hero look a little beat inside
You know it's wrong but it feels so right
Nothing to lose
You've got a plan, a look in your eyes
You've got commitment and you know what you want
You've got a problem, history shows
There's always somebody telling you no
Anyone looks good in a tuxedo with a gun
But it takes style to become Public Enemy # 1
Film stars on the silver screen
If there's one thing I know from TV
Good things don't happen to ugly people
A perfect smile's a good guy thing
They get the girl and they always win
Good things don't happen to ugly people
You were born to be the bad guy
You could make the hero look a little beat inside
You know it's wrong but it feels so right
Nothing to lose if you're going to die
You were born to be the bad guy
You could make the hero look a little beat inside
You know it's wrong but it feels so right
Nothing to lose if you're going to die
Always the bad guy, always the outsider
Always the bad guy, always the outsider
You were born to be the bad guy
You could make the hero look a little beat inside
You know it's wrong but it feels so right
Nothing to lose if you're going to die
You were born to be the bad guy
You could make the hero look a little beat inside
You know it's wrong but it feels so right
Nothing to lose if you're going to die
