When you came in the air went out And every shadow filled up with doubt I don't know who you think you are But before the night is through I wanna do bad things with you I'm the kind to sit up in his room Heart sick an' eyes filled up with blue I don't know what you've done to me But I know this much is true I wanna do bad things with you, okay When you came in the air went out And all those shadows there filled up with doubt I don't know who you think you are But before the night is through I wanna do bad things with you I wanna do real bad things with you I don't know what you've done to me But I know this much is true I wanna do bad things with you I wanna do real bad things with you
