[Verse 1]
They tell me when it's good then you'll think that you know
They tell me when it's bad then you'll think it will show
But what happens when the good and the bad are respectively ugly?
When everyone around seems a little bit boring?
Every person that's around seems a little bit boring
I think that's when you'll know

[Chorus]
You've got a real good case of the bads
Call your mother, call your doctor you're sad
You can't make things, you can't break things so instead you feel bad
Spending all your time alone you start to think that you're sad
I know it's bad

[Verse 2]
They tell me when it's right, then you just let it grow
They tell me when it's wrong, then you just let it go
But what happens when the wrong and the right are deceptively horrible?
And everyone around starts to notice you're miserable?
You keep on missing people that will never miss you, so
I think that's when you'll know

[Chorus]
Real good case of the bads (Real good case of the bads)
Call your mother, call your doctor you're sad (Call your doctor you're sad)
You can't make things, you can't break things so instead you feel bad (Instead you feel bad)
Spending all your time alone you start to think that you're sad
I know it's bad
