When I Was Bad

When I was Bad

What was that you said to me a long long time ago
Stuck in my mind, I fell behind
I guess you’ll never know
Summertime and summers by
The seeds we all must sow
If every day’s another play
Then where’s my Romeo….

When I was bad
You thought I was beautiful
And in a heat wave
I felt so invincible
I’d just run
I kept runnin’
I was serious
But you were jive talkin’

When I was bad
You thought I was dangerous
I could be casual
Or I could be merciless
When I was bold
I was so fabulous
Made you delirious
And breathless

Was I killing time
Still got a wild imagination
I’ve come to find I need a little bit of patience
Peace of mind it never comes when you need it now
And it’s alright you got to cry just a little
And stand in line with all the beggars and the losers
I sit in silence
Pay the devil what I owe him now

Get up get up get up get up do what you feel
Get up get up get up get up do what you feel

When I was bad
I was oblivious
But I wasn’t obvious
I wasn’t furious
And on the freeway
We’d crash into other cars
Another innocent accident
Or was I just curious on the inside

Was I killing time
Still got a wild imagination
I’ve come to find I need a little bit of patience
Cause peace of mind it never comes when you need it now
And it’s alright you got to cry just a little
And stand in line with all the beggars and the losers
I sit in silence
Pay the devil what I owe him now
