bad guy
EILISH BILLIE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sleepin', you're on your tippy toes
Creepin' around like no one knows
Think you're so criminal
Bruises on both my knees for you
Don't say thank you or please
I do what I want when I'm wanting to
My soul? So cynical
So you're a tough guy
Like it really rough guy
Just can't get enough guy
Chest always so puffed guy
I'm that bad type
Make your mama sad type
Make your girlfriend mad tight
Might seduce your dad type
I'm the bad guy, duh
I'm the bad guy
I like it when you take control
Even if you know that you don't
Own me, I'll let you play the role
I'll be your animal
My mommy likes to sing along with me
But she won't sing this song
If she reads all the lyrics
She'll pity the men I know
So you're a tough guy
Like it really rough guy
Just can't get enough guy
Chest always so puffed guy
I'm that bad type
Make your mama sad type
Make your girlfriend mad tight
Might seduce your dad type
I'm the bad guy, duh
I'm the bad guy, duh
I'm only good at being bad, bad
I like when you get mad
I guess I'm pretty glad that you're alone
You said she's scared of me?
I mean, I don't see what she sees
But maybe it's 'cause I'm wearing your cologne
I'm a bad guy
I'm, I'm a bad guy
Bad guy, bad guy
I'm a bad
In Billie Eilish's hit song "Bad Guy," the lyrics are seemingly dark and ominous, reflecting the singer's mischievous and rebellious attitude. The first verse talks about the physical violence she has experienced, causing her nose to bleed and knees to bruise in service of someone else. The lyrics also reveal a feeling of superiority towards others, thinking that she is more criminal than anyone else. Despite her dark and cynical nature, the chorus shows that she is proud of being the "bad guy," and portrays herself as a confident and dominant person. The second verse also suggests a power dynamic in a relationship, with the singer enjoying the feeling of being controlled by her partner. She revels in taking on the role of an animal, suggesting that she is willing to give in to her primal instincts.
The chorus highlights the repeated phrase "I'm the bad guy, duh," which establishes the singer's self-proclaimed title. This phrase takes on a sarcastic tone, as if the singer has already assumed that people expect her to be a bad person. The second half of the second verse references the reaction of the singer's mother if she were to read the lyrics. This suggests that the lyrics may be deliberately provocative or disturbing, and that the singer may be acting out against societal norms and expectations.
Overall, "Bad Guy" is a song about embracing one's darker side and not caring about what others might think. The lyrics encourage listeners to be themselves, even if it means being the "bad guy" in the eyes of others.
