Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't wanna be tempted by your evil desires
I know you got the looks and they work on other guys
But I can see right through them and I just don't have the time
Coz I don't wanna be tempted by your evil desires
There's a half cut kid on a scooter being chased by the guards
There's a half cut kid on a scooter being chased by the guards
But you've got a head start so keep on the line
Half cut kid on a scooter being chased by the guards
And all I wanna do is run
But I'm caught in a daydream
I got some brand new shoes
But I'm feeling too lazy
And all the boys are singing
Oooh
I don't wanna go with you
Oooh
I don't wanna play the fool
Oooh
I've got some bad bad news for you
Girl you're bad bad news
Get yourself out of my face coz you're freaking me out
Get yourself out of my face coz you're freaking me out
I know I look pretty but I can be bad
And If you stay with me baby, I don't want to talk about it
So get yourself out of my face coz you're freaking me out
And all I wanna do is run
But I'm caught in a daydream
I got some brand new shoes
But I'm feeling too lazy
And all the boys are singing
Oooh
I don't wanna go with you
Oooh
I don't wanna play the fool
Oooh
I've got some bad bad news for you
Girl you're bad bad news
Oh no
I don't want to be tempted, I don't wanna go
Although,
The lights are getting brighter but we still haven't lost sight of the road
Yeah it's not over
You're getting older but you've still got it
Yeah it's not over,
The lights are getting brighter but we still haven't lost sight of the road
And all I wanna do is run
But I'm caught in a daydream
I got some brand new shoes
But I'm feeling too lazy
And all the boys are singing
Oooh
I don't wanna go with you
Oooh
I don't wanna play the fool
Oooh
I've got some bad bad news for you
Girl you're bad bad news
Yeah you're bad bad news
Yeah you're bad - you're bad bad news
Girl you're bad bad news

This section highlights the importance of staying on the right path and prioritizing personal goals over short-term pleasures.
The chorus reveals the singer's internal struggle between wanting to escape reality and feeling lethargic.

The final verse echoes the theme of resistance, with the singer expressing their reluctance to succumb to temptation or be swayed by superficial allure. The mention of brighter lights symbolizes the allure and distractions of fame, success, or a glamorous lifestyle. Yet, the singer reiterates their determination to stay focused and not lose sight of their true path amidst the temptations that surround them.
Overall, "Bad News" is a song about personal resilience and the refusal to be led astray by negative influences. It advocates for self-preservation, caution in relationships, and staying true to oneself despite the various distractions and pressures that may arise.
