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 extra ordinary
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 Sporta-Clown - Haha!

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 extra ordinary
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 extra ordinary
Nastiness machine

It's good - to be - bad

Woooww! I feel bad! - Haha!
