| I knew her when she was a secretary | 
| She always refused to get married | 
| She tried not to smile or meet your eyes | 
| She knew if she did, you’d start those lies | 
| I busted a sweat every day on the dock | 
| She sang to herself as she worked for the boss | 
| She’d process words to the dance music station | 
| Every stroke of her fingers an invitation | 
| She said (I just like to be bad) | 
| First names only and one night stands | 
| (I just like to be bad) | 
| Forget the face, I want the hands | 
| And I kept trying whisperin' slow and special | 
| Something eternal and something essential | 
| I don’t give up but I ain’t a stalker | 
| I guess I’m just an easy talker | 
| She said (I just like to be bad) | 
| First names only and one night stands | 
| (I just like to be bad) | 
| Forget the face, I want the hands | 
| And I made sure that I held her gaze | 
| And I made sure she couldn’t look away | 
| And I put aside all those tired old lies | 
| She read the truth, see it in my eyes | 
| She said (I just like to be bad) | 
| First names only and one night stands | 
| (I just like to be bad) | 
| Forget the face, I want the hands | 
| But only for you (I just like to be bad) | 
| But only for you (I just like to be bad) | 
| But only for you (I just like to be bad) | 
| I wanna be there for you (I just like to be bad) | 
| I wanna be there for you (I just like to be bad) | 
| I wanna be there for you, babe (I just like to be bad) | 
| I wanna be there for you (I just like to be bad) | 
| I wanna be for only you (I just like to be bad) |
