I'm So Bad

(album: Oingo Boingo - 1980)

Can't seem to find my way
Someone tell me what to say
Where am I going?
Where did I come from?
I don't know, oh-whoa-oh

Almost got to paradise
But smoke always gets in my eyes
Everything I do is wrong
I'm so bad—so bad

Late at night, they're asleep
I'm awake; get the urge
Hit the street; jump a curb
Alleyway, dark and wet
Set the trap
I forget who I am
But I know...I'll get you!

I'm so bad—so bad

I was born inside a cage
Never knew anything but rage
Though I tried so hard to adjust
Love is something I don't understand
I'll take what I need and I get what I can
I'm so bad

I wake up in the morning so tired
I dreamt that I was walking through fire
The fire didn't hurt me, though
We're old friends

Can't seem to find my way
Someone tell me what to say
Everything I do is wrong
I'm so bad

Pass the time; lie in bed
Hotel room, TV set
Got to move; might be dead
Catch a ride; I'm awake
Join the crowd, hidden blade
Buy a drink
You'd better pray I don't get you
I'm so bad—so bad

I'm so bad—so bad
Oh...ooh...I-I'm so bad
