Somebody Bad Enough
[Verse 1]
I keep your picture in the back of the book
As index to my hidden pages;
A secret life is where we meet
And I'll not let you go

[Verse 2]
I know you think that I'm a bit of a creep
But I will grow on you in stages
Until you recognise that we're both in so deep
That it's become contagious

[Chorus]
And if you love somebody bad enough
I believe in the end they will offer you in their lives

[Verse 3]
I keep the website stocked with pictures of you;
I love to scan your shocked expression
I know that you're the only one who really understands
All about possession

[Chorus]
And if you love somebody bad enough
You will follow their footsteps wherever they're going in life;
And if you love somebody bad enough
You see all human nature reflecting out right from their eyes
[Outro]
And if you love somebody bad enough
You will follow their footsteps wherever they're going in life;
And, yes, I love somebody bad enough
I believe in the end you will let me in your life
