Bad
SixForty1 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Since the last time I had you
Sliding in shotgun with your
Murray State hoodie on
You were shooting me looks all the way home
Since I dropped you off at your front door
I've been feeling lost
I've been craving more
I can't turn you off
I need you bad bad
Like an Earnhardt car going fast fast
Pushing 102 hitting the gas gas
I got to get to you baby
Got me going all kinds of crazy
Running these red lights
Missing your blue eyes
How could I not want more tonight?
Of that kiss on your lips
I wanna play it back
Like an old school MJ track
I need you bad bad bad
(I need you bad bad bad)
It started when you leaned in
Said "what's up and what
Are you drinking?"!
'Fore I knew it you were kissing on me
You didn't want me to leave
Why did I leave?
What you said tonight still replays in my
Head and I cannot go another mile
Without picking you up going for a ride
We can take these turns all night
I need you bad bad
Like an Earnhardt car going fast fast
Pushing 102 hitting the gas gas
I got to get to you baby
Got me going all kinds of crazy
Running these red lights
Missing your blue eyes
How could I not want more tonight?
Of that kiss on your lips
I wanna play it back
Like an old school MJ track
I need you bad bad bad
(I need you bad bad bad)
I need you bad bad
Like an Earnhardt car going fast fast
Pushing 102 hitting the gas gas
I got to get to you baby
Got me going all kinds of crazy
Running these red lights
Missing your blue eyes
How could I not want more tonight?
Of that kiss on your lips
I wanna play it back
Like an old school MJ track
I need you bad bad bad
I need you bad bad bad
I got it, I got it, I got it bad
I got it, I got it bad
I got it, I got it, I got it bad
So you know I'm coming back
I got it, I got it, I got it bad
I got it, I got it bad
I got it, I got it, I got it bad
So you know I'm coming back
I need you bad bad
Like an Earnhardt car going fast fast
Pushing 102 hitting the gas gas
I got to get to you baby
Got me going all kinds of crazy
Running these red lights
Missing your blue eyes
How could I not want more tonight?
Of that kiss on your lips
I wanna play it back
Like an old school MJ track
I need you bad bad bad
(I need you bad bad bad)
I need you bad bad
Like an Earnhardt car going fast fast
Pushing 102 hitting the gas gas
I got to get to you baby
Got me going all kinds of crazy
Running these red lights
Missing your blue eyes
How could I not want more tonight?
Of that kiss on your lips
I wanna play it back
Like an old school MJ track
I need you bad bad bad
Yeah I need you bad bad bad

Line by Line Meaning
If you knew what I was going through
If you truly understood the emotional turmoil I am experiencing
Since the last time I had you
Since the previous occasion when I was in your presence
Sliding in shotgun with your Murray State hoodie on
Sitting in the front passenger seat, wearing your Murray State hoodie
You were shooting me looks all the way home
You were giving me intense, longing glances throughout the entire journey
Since I dropped you off at your front door
Since the moment I left you at your house
I've been feeling lost
I have been experiencing a deep sense of confusion and aimlessness
I've been craving more
I have been yearning for additional time and connection with you
Every minute's been way too long
Each passing minute has felt interminably extended
I can't turn you off
I am unable to stop thinking about you or suppressing my feelings for you
I got to get to you baby
I am compelled to reach you, my affectionate term for you
Got me going all kinds of crazy
You have stirred up an array of intense emotions within me
Running these red lights
I am recklessly disregarding traffic signals in my hurry to be with you
Missing your blue eyes
I long for the sight of your beautiful, captivating blue eyes
How could I not want more tonight?
It is inconceivable for me to not desire further connection and intimacy with you on this evening
Of that kiss on your lips
I am yearning for the sensation of our lips touching in a loving, passionate kiss
I wanna play it back
I desire to relive that moment, replaying it in my mind
Like an old school MJ track
Similar to the nostalgic appeal of an old Michael Jackson song
I got it, I got it, I got it bad
I am heavily influenced or infatuated with you, to an intense degree
So you know I'm coming back
You are aware that I will return to you
Yeah I need you bad bad bad
Indeed, I am desperate for you, expressing my strong desire emphatically
