Lyrics for Bad as interpreted by Mru007

Bad Lyrics
Your butt is mine
Gonna tell you right
Just show your face
In broad daylight
I'm telling you
On how I feel
Gonna hurt your mind
Don't shoot to kill
Come on. Ta.

Come on.
Lay it on me
All right...

I'm giving you
On count of three
To show your stuff
Or let it be...
I'm telling you
Just watch yo ur mouth
I know your game
What you're about

Well they say the sky's the limit
And to me that's really true
But my friend you have seen nothin'
Just wait 'til I get through...

Because I'm bad, I'm bad.
Come on. Ta.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
You know it. Ta.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
Come on, you know.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
And the whole world has to answer right now
Just to tell you once again,
Who's bad...

(Huh-Huh)

The world is out
You're doin' wrong
Gonna lock you up
Before too long,
Your lyin' eyes

Gonna tell you right
So listen up
Don't make a fight,
Your talk is cheap
You're not a man
You're throwin' stones
To hide your hands

But they say the sky's the limit
And to me that's really true
And my friends you have seen nothin'
Just wait 'til I get through...

Because I'm bad, I'm bad.
Come on. Ta.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
You know it. Ta.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
You know it, you know.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
And the whole world has to
answer right now
(And the whole world has to
answer right now)
Just to tell you once again,
(Just to tell you once again,)
Who's bad...

(Huh-Huh)

We can change the world tomorrow
This could be a better place
If you don't like what I'm sayin'
Then won't slap my face...

Because I'm bad, I'm bad.
Come on. Ta.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
You know it. Ta.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
You know it, you know.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)


Woo! Woo! Woo!
(And the whole world has to
answer right now
Just to tell you once again)

You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
Come on. Ta.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
You know it - you know it.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know, you know, you know,
Come on
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
And the whole world has to
answer right now

Just to tell you once again,
(Ta)

You know I'm smooth, I'm bad.
You know it.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad baby.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know, you know, you know it,
come on
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
And the whole world has to
answer right now
(And the whole world has to
answer right now)
Woo!
(Just to tell you once again,)

You know I'm bad, I'm bad.
You know.
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, you know
hoo!
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
You know I'm bad, I'm bad
you know it, you know
(Bad bad-really, really bad)
And the whole world has to
answer right now
(And the whole world has to
answer right now)
Just to tell you once again,
(Just to tell you once again,)

Quincy Jones believed that the image of an artist should be contantly changing. Micheal decided to create an image of himself that was almost opposite of what anyone expected him to be. Did you know this song was originally supposed to be a duet with Prince?

The video to this song cracks me up.
Youve got Wesley Snipes, a bunch of tough street punks and then... Michael Jackson, just seemed kind of odd to me...

I'm not sure... the "tough street punks" seem to look a little more like Steven Van Zandt than actual street punks.

I think wut he means when he says he's the baddest is that he's the baddest in the industry cuz he wuz like the top selling artists at that time rite?? When he says "the whole world has to answer rite now" is like saying who in the industry badder than me. That's my 2 cents. Iono wut u guyz think.

It would have been hilarious if it was a duet with Prince.

'Man.... this song is not one of my faves from MJ, but it's still good.

This was the first Michael Jackson song I ever heard, and I loved it immediately. It's a shame that this was when he started to get weird.

Michael Jackson is not weird. Doesn't anyone notice that all the accusations popped up after he paid that family to stop their obviously false charges? They all wanted money, and now the media's done chased him out of the damn country. Oh well. This video was cool, and the outfit he had on was sexy. =]

when michael jackson is saying he's "Bad" in this song, hes meaning bad as in the ghetto jive for "good". if you really listen to the lyrics, hes talking about how who he's singing to is doing wrong and hes trying to send a good influence. its in his book "Moonwalk" and if you watch and follow the story in the full 18 minute short film of the video, it clears it up.

well basically this was written at a time when michael was trying to shed his goody two shoes image and 'man up' so to speak. there's not much to decipher other than that. also as a side note i loved the full version of this vid directed by martin scorsese, truly excellent.

Is it just me? Or does Michael look so sexy in the video? He looks more like Janet than ever too. Plus, it's 'The WORD is out' not 'the world is out'

I've been an MJ fan all my life and since his death I've been listening to his music a lot, especially Bad...I love it. There are a couple lyrics I'm unclear on what he's saying. What I think he says are the lines with the "-->".

Your butt is mine
-->Won't you take a ride
Just show your face
In broad daylight
I'm tellin' you
-->I'm gonna go after you
Gonna hurt your mind
Don't shoot to kill

Later in the song:

Your talk is cheap
You're not a man
You're throwin' stones
-->Out your hands

Am I totally wrong? Seems to make sense to me this way.

I think one has to read between the lines of this song (though the video kind of makes it obvious). MJ is telling people (his critics?) that he is "bad" too. But his "bad" message is about changin the world for better. That makes it the coolest way to say "be good" by using only the word bad!
Pay attention to these lines-
We can change the world tomorrow
This could be a better place
If you don't like what I'm sayin'
Then won't slap my face...
