Bad Lyrics - Singles - Kirsty Maccoll

I've been the token woman all my life 

The token daughter and the token wife 

Now I collected tokens one by one 

'Til I've saved enough to buy a gun 

Now you can't get even but you can get mad 

And it's not funny no and it's not sad 

It's just a feeling that I've always had 

Oh look out world I'm about to be bad 

I want a brief encounter in a stolen car 

A hand on my buttock in a Spanish bar 

I want to meet the man who wants to go too far 

For a token of my affection 

I want to taste excitement, smell the danger 

Get swept off my feet by the perfect stranger 

I want to try something that I've never had 

Oh look out world I'm about to be bad 

I've been an awful woman all my life 

A dreadful daughter and a hopeless wife 

And I've had my eyes on that carving knife 

Oh, you've been lucky so far 

I'm not crazy no I'm just mad 

I don't want to be sorry, no I want to be glad 

It's a feeling inside that I have always had 

So look out world I'm about to be bad
