Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When a good good girl's gone bad
When a good good girl's gone bad she gone forever, gone forever
You should be there girl
When I was in love, with you
Listen girl, I said
If I'm not here for love
What am I here for
Tell me baby, got me going crazy yeah, I'm like
Ooh, what am I supposed to do, when my heart is soul is still into you
Ooh, what am I supposed to do, when the girl that I once knew started changing
[Chorus: x 2]]
Ooh, if I'm not here for love
What am I here for, you, oh baby, I said
If you didn't think it was love
What did you think it was
Tell me baby, got me going crazy, I'm like
Ooh, what am I supposed to do, when I've giving all my loving to you
Ooh, what am I supposed to do, when the girl that I once knew starts changing
[Chorus: x 2]
Mommy nah, not at all
Pappies never forgiven you
I can only honestly say
I'm getting rid of you
I pity you
You did it only to yourself
So when you cry
Understand that you neuced yourself
When a girl's gone bad
She's gone forever
Better said by J
I'm understanding that (unknown)
So all the Prada I bought
You can keep that
When I get to the pad
Have your shit out the door
[Chorus: Repeat until fade]

Make sure your belongings are out of my home
