Bad Boy

See the girl at the corner of the bar with the pretty face
She’s always hanging around this place
She comes here hoping to find the man of her dreams
But the guys she meets are never what they seem

She’s talking to the guy with the long black hair and the leather vest
That’s the kind of guy that she likes best
She’s drawn to him even though he’s broken her heart before
She can’t help herself; she always comes back for more

She always falls for the bad boy, the kind of guy that'll break her heart
The kind of guy that will let her down again and again, right from the start
She’s not looking for a good man, but that’s really what she needs
She always fall for the bad boy, so she’s never gonna fall for me, she’ll never fall for me

My friends tell me my problem is I’m just too nice
And a girl like that’s never gonna look at me twice
So if I want her attention I’ve gotta play a little rough
I guess being a nice guy’s just not enough

‘Cause she’s a poor judge of character with a poor taste in men
And she’s had her heart broken, over and over again
I know I could be the man that gives her what she needs
But I’m not the kind of guy she wants, so I just watch her heart bleed

Maybe I could take some lessons in being cruel
It doesn’t look that hard, all you’ve got to do is break the rules
Maybe if I spent some time treating her bad
I could be the best bad boy she’s ever had
