Worst Behaviour
Alma Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another year wasted on endless work
They don't know my worth
Another year wasted on stupid jerks
I rip off my shirt
I am done, I'm sick, of hearing it
I am done, fed up, ain't having it
Another year wasted on endless work
They don't know my worth

Around and around and around and around
Pour me another round
'Round and around and around and around
Keep 'em coming till I hit the ground

You better stay home tonight
'Cause I'm on my worst behavior
You better stay home tonight
'Cause I'm on my worst behavior
She on her worst
If you wanna go, then go hard
This is not a night for weak hearts
If you wanna go then go hard

I don't really care what you think of me
Kinda my thing, baby
You don't need to judge how I blow off steam
Like you live perfectly
I am done, I'm sick of hearing it
I am done, fed up, ain't having it
I don't really care what you think of me
I don't care what you think of me

'Round and around and around and around
Pour me another round
Round and around and around and around
Keep 'em coming till I hit the ground

You better stay home tonight
'Cause I'm on my worst behavior
You better stay home tonight
'Cause I'm on my worst behavior
(She on her worst)
If you wanna go, then go hard
This is not a night for weak hearts
If you wanna go, then go hard

I go round and around and around and around
Pour me another round




'Round and around and around and around
Keep 'em coming till I hit the ground

The song reflects how she has had enough of being treated as someone who is dispensable and powerless and she wants to break free from it. The line "I am done, I'm sick of hearing it, I am done, fed up, ain't having it" portrays her desire to fight back against those who underestimate her and to prove that she is worth more than they credit her for.


The chorus of Worst Behaviour encourages the listeners to embrace their inner wild side and let go of their worries. The command "keep 'em coming till I hit the ground" indicates how the singer is drowned in alcohol and wants to carry on until she becomes numb. The bridge suggests that this is not a night for the faint-hearted, and the listeners should push themselves to the limit to show that they are just as powerful and strong as anyone else.


In summary, the lyrics of Worst Behaviour are about the singer taking control of her life and refusing to let anyone else dictate her value. The chorus encourages freedom and the release of inhibitions, while the bridge suggests that true strength lies in pushing oneself to their limits.
