Why do good girls (what what what) like bad guys?

Hey yo boo, why do (good girls) like bad guys?
Knowin' that bad guys tell mad lies?
(And why do) Dog niggas (want a honey wit class?)
(Sometimes you want more than just a honey wit ass)

Uh, uh
Hey yo, who would ever think that the two would go good
Midtown honey, nigga from the hood
But knock on wood, I got this bitch (what?) excuse me
She don't like to be called a bitch, try not to lose me
The rules we go by, where I'm from, she don't know
When I say I'm goin' around the way, she won't go
(Hell no) C'mon baby, you aight with me
Tryin' to get you, to spend the whole night with me
(But I'm a good girl) Uhh, that's why I like her
Couldn't treat her like a hoodrat, didn't bite her
Turn a church girl to a straight Ruff Ryder
Take her to the Ramada make it an all nighter
(Oh no, I only go to the Swiss hotel)
Fuckin' with me? I have you in the back of the Chevelle
Like what (what) hittin' it raw dog in the butt
You was good this mornin, but tonight you a slut

Why do (good girls) like bad guys
Knowin' that bad guys tell mad lies?
(And why do) Dog niggas (want a honey wit class?)
(Sometimes you want more than just a honey wit ass)
Hey yo boo, why do (good girls) like bad guys
Knowin' that bad guys tell mad lies?
(Then why do) Dog niggas (want a honey wit class?)
(Sometimes you want more than just a honey wit ass)

Hey yo boo, I'm diggin' you, 'cause you make me wanna do
All them things I was taught I wasn't supposed to
I'm secure, keep it tight while you on tour
(You fuckin' wit a dog!) That's why I'm feelin' you more
Attractive to me, wit yo' tactics
Hit it like ah! Make me back flip
(You been tryin' to act, rich, that's why I taxed you and I just got married)
Hell, but I ain't even ask you
(I'm just tellin' you, 'cause nowadays, bitches be flippin')
One more bitch, I'm skippin' (Damn girl, stop trippin')
'Cause you be actin' like
(Listen, I ain't always talkin' money
But I will keep you wit a smile, and walkin' funny
So what's it gon' be?) Yo, what you mean? (What to do?
You want the nigga wit the slacks, or the jeans and the boots?
You wanna be safe or be laced, 'cause you can be replaced)
Yeah, you can be erased
(Don't get slapped, babyface)

Why do (good girls) like bad guys
Knowin' that bad guys tell mad lies?
(And why do) Dog niggas (want a honey wit class?)
(Sometimes you want more than just a honey wit ass)
Hey yo boo, why do (good girls) like bad guys
Knowin' that bad guys tell mad lies?
(Then why do) Dog niggas (want a honey wit class?)
(Sometimes you want more than just a honey wit ass)

Man, I got shorty stayin' out late (Well I keep him wit a cut
And his nails stay clean) At least I get a nut
And I got honey rebellin' (And I stopped him from sellin')
I be gettin' away with murder, right? (shit, I ain't tellin')
Straight out the hood (yeah, nigga you get mushy)
I got honey suckin' dick (and I got you eatin' pussy)
I can be good in a bad way (I can be bad in a good way)
Girl, you ain't the same dog (that's what them rats in the hood say
Or would say, if you was around them more often)
I got honey smokin' weed (it be havin' me coughin')
She keep the dog on the leash (when we walk in the streets)
And if y'all think it's sweet (then the dog's off the leash
Now I don't want no drama, wit no baby's mama
I might be a good girl, but I keeps the armor)
Girl, you off the hook, but at least now I know why
Good girls like bad guys

Why do (good girls) like bad guys
Knowin' that bad guys tell mad lies?
(And why do) Dog niggas (want a honey wit class?)
(Sometimes you want more than just a honey wit ass)
Hey yo boo, why do (good girls) like bad guys
Knowin' that bad guys tell mad lies?
(Then why do) Dog niggas (want a honey wit class?)
(Sometimes you want more than just a honey wit ass)

Why do good girls (what what what) like bad guys?
Why do good girls (what what what) like bad guys?
Why do good girls (what what what) like bad guys?
Why do good girls (what what what) like bad guys?
Uhh, uhh

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
