Bad Seed Lyrics

You know I've always been a bad seed
Drifted any way the wind blows
Now I ain't got much to show you know
You reap just what you sow
You know I've always been a loner
Tried to settle for a spell
Had an angel in my corner
I made her life a living hell
Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside
guitar
Now don't you go and try to help me
I don't try to help my self
I came to a losin' hand
An empty heart is all that's left
Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside
Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside

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.
