Babe, I Got You Bad Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

Babe, I got you bad 

Dreaming blood-wet dreams, only madmen have 

Baby, I got you bad 

I wish to God I never had and it makes me feel so sad 

O, baby, I got you bad 

Yeah, babe, I got you bad 

I long for your kiss, for the turn of your mouth 

Your body is a long thing heading south 

And I don't know what I'm talking about 

All of my words have gone mad 

Ah, baby, I got you bad 

Seasons have gone wrong 

And I lay me down in a bed of snow 

Darling, since you've been gone 

Well, my hands, they don't know where to go 

And all of my teeth are bared 

I got you so much I'm scared 

Ah, baby, I got you bad 

With the sweep of my hand I undid all the plans 

That explode at the moment I kissed you on your small hot mouth 

And your caramel limbs, that are hymns to the glory that is you 

Look at me darlin', it's sad, sad, sad 

Look at me darlin', it's sad, sad, sad 

Baby, I got you bad 

Smoke billowing from the bridges 

And the rivers we swim in are boiling 

My hands are reaching for you everywhere 

But you're not there, or you're recoiling 

And a weary moon dangles from a cloud 

Oh honey, I know it's not allowed to say I got you bad 

I got you bad 

I got you bad 

I got you bad 

I got you bad 

I got you bad 

I got you bad 

I got you bad 

I got you bad 

I got you bad
