No
THE "BAD" Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All I really want to do
Is tear these walls out of me and you
We're trapped inside these movie roles
Let's start living with a little more soul
Throw your coat upon the grass
Flip back your head and shake your ass
I'll do anything you like
Let's start living with a little more life
It's a great big bouncy world and it's yours and mine
I wanna revel in our physical attraction
With no distractions

Run my fingers down your back
I'm gonna kiss your belly and bite your neck
Out here lying in the sun
It's one for the money, and two for the fun
There's something chemical - what have we done?
It's time we got us some soul satisfaction
With no distractions

It's no accident that I feel fine
It's a great big bouncy world and it's yours and mine




Close your eyes and we will make our connection
With no distractions

PSYCHO I'm not talking about the message or lyrical content of the songs. I'm talking about how pleasant the two songs sound or don't. And "Mirrors", IMHO, gets on my nerves whenever I hear it. I just don't like the sound or his vocals in it.

My favorite songs by JT are:
1) "Until the End of Time",
2) this one ("Not a Bad Thing"),
and
3) "Rock Your Body"

In that order. Especially the first two. It's all opinion anyways.
