Lyrics

They want me to be nice
They want me to be good
But I'm a simple rotten guy
Who's just misunderstood
They say that I should change
And wear a perky smile
But smiling makes my face hurt
And happiness is vile.

They want me to give up the only life I've ever had
But it's so good to be bad...

It's good to be bad
It's great to be a crook
It's nice to be a villain like you read about in books
It's swell to be nasty
It's keen to be so mean
Yes, I'm an extraordinary nastiness machine.

It's good to be bad.

They think I should be friends
With everyone in town
But I'll never stop trying
To get rid of Sportaclown
To be an evil baddie is a thrill - and let me add
It's so good to be bad!

It's good to be bad
It's great to be a crook
It's nice to be a villain like you read about in books
It's swell to be nasty
It's keen to be so mean
Yes, I'm an extraordinary nastiness machine.

It's good to be bad
It's great to be a crook
It's nice to be a villain like you read about in books
It's swell to be nasty
It's keen to be so mean
Yes, I'm an extraordinary nastiness machine.

It's good to be bad.
Wowah!
I feel bad! Haha!
