Bad News
Human Resources Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Everything will be alright
Gotta hope that it ends well for all of us involved
Don′t point your finger at me
I don't have the answers
But you′re bad news, you are
And I'm bad news, they say
I choose to obey
And I′m turning inside out
I promise not to leave you
No, I lost my head again
Close my eyes for a while again
Everything will be alright
Gotta hope that it ends well for all of us involved
Don′t point your finger at me
I don't have the answers
But you′re bad news, you are
And I'm bad news, they say
Let′s be bad news together
I choose to obey
And I'm turning inside out
I promise not to leave you
No, I lost my head again
But you′re bad news, you are
And I'm bad news, they say
Let's be bad news together
I choose to obey
And I′m turning inside out
I promise not to leave you
No, I lost my head again
The lyrics of "Bad News" by Human Resources delve into the complexities of relationships and personal struggles. The singer implores their friend to "settle down for a while" and reassures them that everything will eventually be okay. Despite the uncertainty and challenges they face, there is a sense of hope for a positive outcome. The plea to not point fingers indicates a desire to avoid blame and instead work together to navigate the difficulties at hand.
The repeated assertion that both the singer and their friend are "bad news" suggests a self-awareness of their flaws and imperfections. There is a recognition of the negative impact they may have on others, but a willingness to embrace those shortcomings and face them alongside each other. The choice to obey and stay committed to the relationship despite its challenges reflects a sense of loyalty and dedication.
The imagery of turning "inside out" can symbolize vulnerability and raw emotions being exposed. It conveys a sense of being stripped down to one's core and baring one's true self to another. The refrain of promising not to leave underscores a commitment to stand by their friend, even through moments of confusion or turmoil. The repeated line, "No, I lost my head again," hints at moments of emotional upheaval or recklessness that may occur in the midst of their struggles.
Overall, "Bad News" captures the ups and downs of relationships, the acceptance of one's own flaws, and the determination to weather the storm together. It speaks to the messy and imperfect nature of human connections, yet emphasizes the importance of staying true to each other through thick and thin. The song conveys a message of solidarity in facing challenges, acknowledging imperfections, and ultimately choosing to support and stand by one another despite the obstacles that may arise.

This is pretty cool, I work at Joann Fabric when I heard it on the store radio, had to look on the radio system to find the name of the song and band name, but like, now one of my favorite songs! keep it up!
@maicey_t.
I'm a little creeped out cause that's literally the same thing that just happened to me, except I guess two years after it happened to you. Weird.
@just_cade
SAME thing happened to me in a Joann Fabric, but with a different song by the same artist
