Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I say why does it feel so good?
So good to be bad
Getting what I want, boy
Why does that make you so mad?

You see, why does it feel so good?
So good to be bad
'Cause if it's trouble that you're looking for
Oh baby, here I am (I am)

Oh baby, here I am

I said why does it feel so good?
So good to be bad (Bad)

I say why does it feel so good?
So good to be bad
Getting what I want, boy
Why does that make you so mad?

You see, why does it feel so good?
So good to be bad
'Cause if it's trouble that you're looking for
Oh baby, here I am (I am)

Oh baby, here I am





I say why does it feel so good?
So good to be bad

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Bad" by David Guetta and Showtek featuring Vassy seemingly talk about the pleasure of being bad and getting what one wants, even if it frustrates or angers others. The singer questions why it feels so good to be bad and wonders why getting what she wants makes her man so mad. The lyrics can be interpreted as referring to a relationship where the woman is the one taking control and calling the shots, enjoying the power dynamic that comes with being perceived as "bad." The repeated refrain of "Oh baby, here I am" suggests a confidence and assertiveness on the part of the singer as she revels in her "badness."


Alternatively, the lyrics could be seen as a nod to the idea of being a "bad boy" or "bad girl" and enjoying the exhilaration of breaking the rules or pushing boundaries. The lyrics don't provide much specifics beyond the repeated question of why it feels so good to be bad, leaving open a variety of interpretations about what being "bad" might look like.


Overall, the lyrics of "Bad" are not terribly complex, but they do speak to a universal feeling of enjoying a bit of rebellion or rule-breaking from time to time.

You take me down
Spin me around
You got me running all the lights
Don't make a sound
Talk to me now
Let me inside your mind
I don't know what you're thinking sugar
But I just got that feeling sugar
I can hear the sirens burning
Red lights turning
I can't turn back now
So hold on tight

I don't know where the lights are taking us
But something in the night is dangerous
And nothing's holding back the two of us
Baby this is getting serious
Oh oh oh
Detain The Dangerous
Oh oh oh

Show me your soul
I gotta know
Bet that you're beautiful inside
Toes on the glass
Car moving fast
Come take the wheel and drive
