This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Oh, I, I,..... I
I want to be bad, baby
I, I, I, I, I want to be bad with ya, baby
Do you
Understand what I need
From you
Just let me be the girl
To show you, you
Everything that you can be
Is everything that I can be
(I want to be) My Turn
Let me let you know that I, I can
Promise that I won't do that
So, boy, say the time and place 'cause you make me want to misbehave
::Chorus::LyricsCafe.com::
I want to be bad
You make bad look so good
I've got things on my mind
I never thought I would
I, I want to be bad
You make that feel so good
I'm losing all my cool
I'm about to break the rules
I, I want to be bad
I want to be bad with ya, baby
I, I, I, I, I want to be bad, baby
what's up?
Tell me what to do
How to be
Teach me all your words from A to Z
But I-
Don't want your other girl to see
That you're messing round with me
Should I boy
Tell ya what I got is what ya want
Tell, Tell me, do I I turn you on?
I Don't want no one judging me
