Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm uncontrolled with all the shuts are never mine, oh!
I'm gonna tell you how I feel before you hit the ground,
This time I'm gonna make you see,
And I'm gonna make it loud
You'll be over in a minute now,
'Cause I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl,
For messing with a bad girl,
You'll get hurt,
Stop messing with a bad girl, bad, bad girl
You think I wanna be awake without you, babe? No!
It might be hard for you but I'm gonna go my way, hey!
I'm gonna hold my head up, have my feet just stomp the ground,
I honestly won't take no more, you see this girl is proud
You'll be over in a minute now,
'Cause I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl,
I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl,
For messing with a bad girl,
You'll get hurt,
Stop messing with a bad girl, bad, bad girl
Don't tell me what to do, no,
Don't tell me where to go, boy,
No wonder he speaks so,
no, no, no,
I'm doing just fine now,
Stop pushing me around now,
You're pushing me around now,
no, no, no
You'll be over in a minute now,
'Cause I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl,
I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl,
For messing with a bad girl,
You'll get hurt,
Stop messing with a bad girl, bad, bad girl
You'll be over in a minute now,
'Cause I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl,
I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl, (no, no)
For messing with a bad girl,
You'll get hurt,
Stop messing with a bad girl, bad, bad girl (no, no, no)
'Cause I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl,
I'm a bad girl, bad, bad girl,
For messing with a bad girl,
You'll get hurt,
Stop messing with a bad girl, bad, bad girl
