Bad Songtext
von Kirsty MacColl

(Kirsty MacColl)

I′ve been the token woman all my life
The token daughter and the token wife
Now I collected tokens one by one
'Til I′ve saved enough to buy a gun
Now you can't get even but you can get mad
And it's not funny no and it′s not sad
It′s just a feeling that I've always had
Oh Look out world I′m about to be bad


I want a brief encounter in a stolen car
A hand on my buttock in a Spanish bar
I want to meet the man who wants to go too far
For a token of my affection
I want to taste excitement
Smell the danger
Get swept off my feet by the perfect stranger
I want to try something that I've never had
Oh look out world I′m about to be bad

I've been an awful woman all my life
A dreadful daughter and a hopeless wife
And I′ve had my eye on that carving knife
Oh you've been lucky so far
I'm not crazy no I′m just mad
I don′t want to be sorry
No I want to be glad
It's just a feeling inside that I have always had
So look out world I′m about to be bad
