Billy Bad Breaks Lyrics

Little by little, I've begun to see
Just why love don't come easily
One step forward and two behind
Waiting for the best chance, just takes time

And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes

Beyond the realms of fantasy
He can see that it's not to be
We can not be like Howard Hughs
We don't have the choice to choose

And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes

And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes

What does the future hold in store
More bad luck at your front door
You take the silver and I'll take the gold
But who's the winner when all is told

And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes

Just why love don't come easily
One step forward and two behind
Waiting for the best chance, just takes time

And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks 
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks 
All you ever do is make mistakes

Beyond the realms of fantasy
He can see that it's not to be
We can not be like Howard Hughs
We don't have the choice to choose

And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks 
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks 
All you ever do is make mistakes

And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks 
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks 
All you ever do is make mistakes

What does the future hold in store 
More bad luck at your front door
You take the silver and I'll take the gold
But who's the winner when all is told

And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks 
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks 
All you ever do is make mistakes

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
