Lyrics

[Intro]
We don't care what people say
We know the truth
Enough is enough with this horse ****
I am not a freak
I was born with my freedom
Don't tell me I'm less than my freedom
[Verse 1]
I'm a ****, I'm a loser, baby, maybe I should quit
I'm a jerk, wish I had the money but I can't find work
I'm a brat, I'm a selfish punk, I really should be smacked
My parents tried till they got divorced 'cause I ruined their lives
[Chorus]
I'm a bad kid and I'll survive
Oh, I'm a bad kid
Don't know wrong from right
I'm a bad kid and this is my life
One of the bad kids
Don't know wrong from right (This is my life)
[Refrain]
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid, baby
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid, baby (A bad kid, baby)
A bad kid, baby
Don't be insecure
[Verse 2]
I'm a twit, degenerate, young rebel and I'm proud of it
Pump your fist if you would rather mess up than put up with this
I'm a nerd, I chew gum and smoke in your face, I'm absurd
I'm so bad and I don't give a damn, I love it when you're mad, when you're mad, when you're mad
[Chorus]
I'm a bad kid and I will survive
Oh, I'm a bad kid
Don't know wrong from right
I'm a bad kid and this is my life
One of the bad kids
Don't know wrong from right (This is my life)
[Refrain]
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid, baby
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid, baby (A bad kid, baby)
A bad kid, baby
Don't be insecure
[Bridge]
I'm not that typical, baby
I'm a bad kid, like my mom and dad made me
I'm not that cool, and you hate me
I'm a bad kid, that's the way that they made me
[Chorus]
I'm a bad kid, I'm disastrous
Give me your money or I'll hold my breath
I'm a bad kid and I will survive
One of the bad kids
Don't know wrong from right
[Outro]
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid, baby
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid, baby (A bad kid, baby)
A bad kid, baby
A bad kid, baby
A bad kid, baby
A bad kid, baby
