Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die youngBad girls do it well
My chain hits my chest
When I'm banging on the dashboard
My chain hits my chest
When I'm banging on the radio
Get back, get down
Pull me closer if you think you can hang
Hands up, hands tied
Don't go screamin' if I blow you with a bang
Suki suki
I'm comin' in the Cherokee
Gasoline
There's steam on the window screen
Take it, take it
World's bouncin' like a trampoline
When I get to where I'm goin', gonna have you tremblin'
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
My chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin' on the dashboard
My chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin' on the radio
Yeah, back it, back it
Yeah, pull up to the bumper game
Read the signal
Cover me, 'cause I'm changin' lanes
Had a handle on it
My life, I broke it
When I get to where I'm goin', gonna have you sayin' it
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
My chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin' on the dashboard
My chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin' on the radio
chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin' on the dashboard
My chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin'
Get back, get down
Pull me closer if you think you can hang
Hands up, hands tied
Don't go screamin' if I blow you with a bang
Goin' nought to bitch, I'll see four million
Accelerating fast I can do this in a second
Lookin' in the rearview, swaggin' goin' swell
Leavin' boys behind 'cause it's legal just to kill
Shift gear, automatic, damned if I do
Who's gonna stop me when I'm comin' through?
What we got left is just me and you
But if I go to bed, baby, can I take you?
Get back, get down
Pull me closer if you think you can hang
Hands up, hands tied
Don't go screamin' if I blow you with a bang
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Live fast, die young
Bad girls do it well
Chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin' on the dashboard
My chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin' on the radio
Chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin' on the dashboard
My chain hits my chest
When I'm bangin'
M.I.A.'s "Bad Girls" paints a picture of a rebellious and fearless woman who shirks societal norms and lives life on the edge. The song opens with the repeated line "Live fast, die young, bad girls do it well." This phrase suggests that the song is both a commentary on the risks and dangers of living a fast-paced and dangerous lifestyle and an assertion of the strength and resilience of those who choose to do so.
Throughout the song, M.I.A. speaks of speeding in a car, with the line "Suki suki, I'm comin' in the Cherokee, gasoline, there's steam on the window screen." This line conjures images of a high-speed chase, with M.I.A. pressing her foot down on the accelerator as she races towards her destination.
In the second verse, M.I.A. sings "Had a handle on it, my life, I-I broke it," which suggests that she once had control over her life but has chosen to relinquish that control in favor of living dangerously. The song concludes with M.I.A. singing "Chain hits my chest when I'm banging on the dashboard, my chain hits my chest when I'm bangin' on the radio," which echoes the opening lines of the song and reinforces the idea that M.I.A. is a woman living life on her own terms.
