Let's Be Bad Lyrics - The Music Of Smash - Smash Cast

When we're feeling down and low, 

Then our favorite word is no 

Cause it points the way to go. 

Let's be bad. 

Who knows what will come tomorrow? 

Neighbor, lose the sauce and sorrow. 

Here's some sugar you can borrow. 

Let's be bad. 

Don't want to be boring 

Our twenties are roaring 

Let's punish the flooring 

Yeah drummer man, do what you can 

Tonight the (whoo!) will hit the fan! 

If you need some more enticing, 

Here's a girl with twice the spicing 

We're the cake, but she's the icing! 

Let's be bad. 

Let's be bad. 

If you say something is taboo, 

Well, thats the thing i want to do. 

Do it till we're black and blue, 

Let's be bad. 

Guns and gangsters suit me fine. 

Al capone is a buddy of mine. 

He's my big shot valentine. 

Let's be bad. 

If spirits are sagging 

If feet are 'a dragging 

Fall off of that wagon. 

The piano hums to the bass and drums, 

And i'll be dancing when hoover comes. 

Don't care if you've tied the knot, 

Most folks want what they ain't got. 

Melt the ice, some like it hot. 

Let's be bad. 

Here's my whistle, make it whetter. 

Let me wear that scarlet letter. 

When i'm bad i'm even better. 

Let's be bad. 

Say 'bye-bye' propriety 

No polite society 

Give me notoriety! 

Let's be bad. 

Bring on the vices! 

Don't care what the price is! 

I'll add the right spices, 

When the sound of bass slaps you in the face, 

Well, it ain't my husband i'll embrace. 

I can't see the use in waiting. 

Your lips are intoxicating 

Do my hips need some translating? 

Let's be bad. 

If i drown in baths of gin, 

Notify my next of kin, 

They might grieve, or might jump in! 

Let's be bad. 

Who wants plays and o'neill dramas? 

Gershwin is the cat's pajamas! 

I'm the queen of the red-hot mamas! 

Let's be bad. 

Each crook and g-man 

Each poppin' he man 

Just stick with me man! 

If he joins to juke with my red-hot yuke, 

Then just like judas once said to luke, 

Here's the key for my ignition, 

Hit the gas to my transmission! 

When you hear the things i'm wishing' 

You won't offer opposition! 

Let's prohibit prohibition! 

Let's be bad! 

Some like it hot and that ain't bad!
