Feels so good being bad
There’s no way I’m turning back
Now the pain is my pleasure
'Cause nothing could measure

Love is great, love is fine
Out the box, out of line
The affliction of the feeling, leaves me wanting more

'Cause I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don’t care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me

'Cause I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don’t care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me

Just one night full of sin
Feel the pain on your skin
Tough, I don't scream mercy
It's your time to hurt me yeah
If I'm bad tie me down
Shut me up, gag and bound me
'Cause the pain is my pleasure, nothing comes better
Yeah

'Cause I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don’t care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones

Fun fact: this song was actually written for Britney but Rihanna loved it so much she laid claim! Then she knew she HAD to get Britney in on it too. Definitely a badass combo

@jaywest3734

Rihanna seems to do that with a lot of songs.
