Bad Boy
Toni Romiti Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You got a jawline like a model
You stay fresh from head to toe
Got your own money, never borrow
On your grind, I like your hustle
But you're no good for me
Cuz them pretty boys not pretty
On the inside of they souls
And even though I know you're bad for me
I can't let go
You're no good for me
No, no, you're no good for me


But I can't stay away
No matter what they say
I keep comin' back for that bad boy
Even though I know you treat me bad, boy
I can't stay away
No matter what they say
Even though you still treat me bad
My dumbass keep on comin' back, no

Do you not see what we have
I thought you were my other half
I used to look at dumb girls and laugh
Now I'm that dumb girl, and it's sad
Messages on messages, I keep findin' all these texts and shit
From naked bitches with naked pictures
I wonder why you textin' them
Are you trying to hurt me
My friends say you don't deserve me
I guess I'm really not learning
I'm in love with a nigga that don't love me



I ask myself, "does the good outweigh the bad?"
I tell myself he's the worst I've ever had
It took me some time to find my strength
But now, I'm on my own, and I can't complain
I thought I couldn't walk away
I have nothing else to say
Can't waste no more time with that bad boy
Through fuckin' 'round with them bad boys
I thought I couldn't walk away
I have nothing else to say
For all the times that you did me bad
Your dumbass ain't gon' get me back, no

No, no, no, no
When a good girl's gone, she's gone for good
Aye, yeah, yeah
No, no, no
No, no, no
When a good girl's gone, she's gone for good
Too late to cry
Too late to say something
All you can say is goodbye
Everybody knows you had it all
But you lost it
Yeah, you know you lost it
I thought I couldn't walk away
I have nothing else to say
I thought I couldn't walk away




For all the times that you did me bad
Your dumbass ain't gon' get me back, no no

Overall Meaning

In Toni Romiti's song "Bad Boy," she describes her tumultuous relationship with a charming and attractive man who is not good for her. Despite knowing that the man treats her poorly, Romiti finds herself unable to resist his allure. She compliments the man's physical appearance, noting that he looks like a model and always appears fresh from head to toe. He is also financially independent and hardworking, qualities that Romiti admires. However, she reveals that his beauty is only skin-deep, and she believes that he is not a good person on the inside. This realization leads to the revelation that the man is not good for her, but she cannot let go of the attraction she has towards him.


Romiti explains that her friends tell her that the man is not worthy of her, and they question whether the good outweighs the bad in their relationship. Despite this, Romiti finds herself continually drawn to the bad boy and cannot stay away from him, even though he treats her poorly. She describes finding transgressive messages from other women the man has been seeing and wonders if he is trying to hurt her. These discoveries lead Romiti to reflect on her own actions and realize that she has become "the dumb girl" in a relationship that only brings her sadness.
