All Bad
Justin Bieber Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's another, if it ain't one thing
Instigators, like pouring fire on propane
The wrong thing, they be worried about
Ooh, you know females
And how they like to run their mouths

Wanna be, wanna be, just like, talk like, you
(Like you) you (like you)
Misery, misery, loves company
Don't let them change your mood

They try to get at me (they try to get at me)
Behind your back (your back, your back), ooh yeah
Tryna tell me that I'm just like the others
But I ain't all bad

No, no, I ain't all bad
All bad, all bad
I ain't all bad
All bad, all bad

I might make you mad, so mad
My bad, no, no, I ain't all bad

Between us, they wanna comment
Your worst enemy some time be your best friend
Perfect, ain't saying that I am
Proven, least I'm proving that I give a damn

Wanna be, wanna be everything I ought to be to you (to you)
Envy, envy, same thing as jealousy
Jealous of you
That's what they do

They try to get at me (they try to get at me)
Behind your back (your back, your back)
Tryin' to tell me that I'm just like the others
But I ain't all bad

No, no, I ain't all bad
All bad, all bad
I ain't all bad
All bad, all bad





I might make you mad, so mad
My bad, no, no, I ain't all bad

Overall Meaning

In "All Bad," Justin Bieber sings about the negative impact of rumors and how they can affect both personal relationships and his reputation. He starts by acknowledging that there are always people who will stir up trouble and talk behind someone's back. He implies that women are often the culprits in this type of drama, which can cause problems in a relationship. Bieber then encourages his partner to ignore the naysayers and dismiss their attempts to change her mood.


In the second verse, Bieber states that even though others may want to comment on their relationship, it's important to judge for themselves. He admits that he's not perfect but that he cares about his partner and their relationship. He encourages her not to be envious of others, warning that envy leads to jealousy and can threaten their bond. The chorus then repeats, assuring his partner that despite what others may say, he's not all bad.


Overall, "All Bad" is a cautionary tale of the harm rumors can cause, especially in a romantic relationship. It encourages communication, trust, and the ability to stand strong in the face of negativity.

This is about Taylor Swift. She is so creepy. He is saying Taylor went behind Selena's back to scare Justin off to protect Selena. He mentions in the song Taylor gets at him and tells him you're just like the others.
