Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
My sister got lucky, married a yuppie
Took him for all he was worth
Now she's a swinger dating a singer
I can't decide which is worse
[Chorus]
But not me, baby
I've got you to save me
Oh, you're so bad
Best thing I ever had
In a world gone mad
You're so bad
[Verse 2]
My sister's ex-husband can't get no lovin'
Walks around dog-faced and hurt
Now he's got nothing, head in the oven
I can't decide which is worse
[Chorus]
But not me, baby
I've got you to save me
Oh, you're so bad
Best thing I ever had
In a world gone mad
You're so bad
[Chorus]
Oh, but not me, baby
I've got you to save me
Oh, you're so bad
Best thing I ever had
In a world gone mad
You're so bad
[Outro]
Oh, you're so bad
Best thing I ever had
In a world gone mad
You're so bad
