Won't you tell me, what did I do?
To make you so nervous, like 5-0's been comin' for you
Don't mean to hurt your feelings with the honest things I say
I can't help it, but I ain't into playing games
No, no, I ain't into playing games, ya know

I'm just a confident, independent, gettin it', intelligent woman
And if my confident, independence go and get it intelligence scares ya
Then I'll be the bad girl
The one that you really want
The one that won't settle for nothing and make you show just what you're made of
Yeah, I'll be the bad girl
The one that you're scared to love
I'll make you face all your fears, then wipe all your tears, so toughen up
And fall for the bad girl
Yeah, I'll be the bad girl

I'm just being who I am
It's not my fault that somehow I make you feel less of a man
My intention's not to offend, but I see right through your pride
Yes, that's why you look away
I stare into your eyes
Yes, I'm so sorry, so sorry, so sorry

I'm just a confident, independent, gettin it', intelligent woman
And if my confident, independence go and get it intelligence scares ya
Then I'll be the bad girl
The one that you really want
The one that won't settle for nothing and make you show just what you're made of
Yeah, I'll be the bad girl
The one that you're scared to love
I'll make you face all your fears, then wipe all your tears, so toughen up
And fall for the bad girl

The one strong enough to lift you up
Who won't let you fall, unless you're falling in love
Sooner or later you'll see, that having a bad girl is everything you need
I'll be the bad girl
Yeah, I'll be the bad girl
