Bad Girlfriend
The Theory of a Deadman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My girlfriend's a dick magnet
My girlfriend's gotta have it
She's hot, can't stop, up on stage doing shots
Tip the man he'll ring the bell, get her drunk, she'll scream like hell
Dirty girl, gettin' down, dance with guys from outta town
Grab her ass, actin' tough,
Mess with her, she'll fuck you up
No one really knows if she's drunk or if she's stoned,
But she's comin' back to my place tonight!

She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair, when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty 'til the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad bad girlfriend!

Red thong, party's on, love this song, sing along
Come together, leave alone, see you later back at home
No one really knows if shes drunk or is she's stoned
But she's coming back to my place tonight
I say
No one really knows just how far she's going to go
But I'm gonna find out later tonight

She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair, when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty 'til the end
You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad bad girlfriend!


Doesn't take her long to make things right
But does it make her wrong to have the time of her life
The time of her life
(My girlfriend's a dick magnet)
(My girlfriend's gotta have it)

She's a gold digger
Now you figure out it's over, pull the trigger
Future's finished, there it went, savings gone,
The money spent

I look around and all I see is no good, bad and ugly,
Man she's hot, fixed to be the future ex-Miss Connolly!

She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair, when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty 'til the end




You know what she is, no doubt about it
She's a bad bad girlfriend, she's a bad bad girlfriend, she's a bad bad girlfriend

Overall Meaning

The Theory of a Deadman's song "Bad Girlfriend" is about a man who is in a relationship with a woman who is wild and unpredictable. The opening line "My girlfriend's a dick magnet, my girlfriend's gotta have it" suggests that she is attracted to men who are not good for her. She is a party girl who loves to drink, dance and flirt with guys from out of town. She is a bad influence on her boyfriend, who seems to have fallen for her despite her wild ways.


The chorus "She likes to shake her ass, she grinds it to the beat, she likes to pull my hair when I make her grind her teeth" portrays a woman who enjoys being in control and is sexually dominant. The bridge "Doesn't take her long to make things right, but does it make her wrong to have the time of her life" implies that she is aware of her wild behavior and tries to redeem herself by making things right. However, it raises the question of whether it is wrong to have fun at the expense of others.


In conclusion, "Bad Girlfriend" is a song about a woman who is wild, unpredictable, and possibly self-destructive. She lives life on her own terms and enjoys every moment of it, but her behavior has consequences that she may not be aware of. The man, on the other hand, is drawn to her wild side and is willing to put up with it, even if it means compromising his own values.
