Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 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
The chorus of David Feat. Vassy's song "Bad" questions why it feels so good to be bad. The lyrics explore the notion that society has deemed certain behaviors taboo or unacceptable, yet these actions can still bring pleasure and excitement. The singer of the song revels in behaving badly and not conforming to societal norms, which causes their partner to become angry and frustrated. However, the singer remains unapologetic and confident in their actions, even presenting themselves as a desirable option for those seeking trouble.
The repetition of the phrase "why does it feel so good?" suggests that this feeling is universal and not exclusive to the singer. The song challenges the idea of what is considered right or wrong, and questions why we enjoy pursuing behaviors that may be considered morally questionable. Despite the potential consequences that come with behaving badly, the singer seems to find gratification in this rebellious behavior.
Overall, "Bad" is a song that celebrates living on the edge and pushing boundaries, while also questioning why we are drawn to these actions in the first place.
