[Verse 1]
They want me to be nice
They want me to be good
But I'm a simple rotten guy
Who's just misunderstood
They say that I should change
And wear a perky smile
But smiling makes my face hurt
And happiness is vile

[Pre-Chorus]
They want me to give up the only life I've ever had
But it's so good to be bad

[Chorus]
It's good to be bad
It's great to be a crook
It's nice to be a villain like you read about in books
It's swell to be nasty
It's keen to be so mean
Yes, I'm an extraordinary nastiness machinе
It's good to be bad

[Verse 2]
They think I should be friеnds
With everyone in town
But I'll never stop trying
To get rid of Sportaclown
To be an evil baddie is a thrill and let me add
It's so good to be bad
[Chorus]
It's good to be bad
It's great to be a crook
It's nice to be a villain like you read about in books
It's swell to be nasty
It's keen to be so mean
Yes, I'm an extraordinary nastiness machine

[Chorus]
It's good to be bad
It's great to be a crook
It's nice to be a villain like you read about in books
It's swell to be nasty
It's keen to be so mean
Yes, I'm an extraordinary nastiness machine

[Outro]
It's good to be bad
Wowah
I feel bad, haha!
