Lyrics

[Verse 1] Bodies without minds I hear you're the ones with the bleeding hearts Blue and bittersweet You tear my dreams apart [Chorus] 'Cause I was born to be bad I'm not sad, and I'm glad I did it Born to be bad I'm not sad, why don't you all get with it? Yeah [Verse 2] The damned don't cry Cry out when they're betrayed Bodies slam they scream As the keynotes fade [Chorus] 'Cause I was born to be bad I'm not sad, and I'm glad I did it Born to be bad I'm not sad, why don't you all get with it? Woo! [Bridge] I called my mother from Hollywood the other day And I said, "Mom, I just called to tell ya I joined a rock and roll band And, uh, I won't be coming home no more" You know what she did? She started cryin' and weepin' and whimperin', like all mothers do She woke up my father and told him about it, he said "There ain't a damn thing we can do, that's the way she is Hey, you know she was just, uh, born to be bad" [Guitar Solo] [Interlude] Woo! [Verse 3] Yeah, I want you to bring me his ears To satisfy my mad desires And if he bites the dust Well, you just have to miss my fire, woo! Yeah [Chorus] 'Cause I was born to be bad I'm not sad, and I'm glad I did it Born to be bad I'm not sad, why don't you all get with it?
