ฟังเพลงI Want to Be Bad

I Want To Be Bad - Duke Ellington (艾灵顿公爵)

To be or not to be

That is not the question

I decided long ago to be

With me it's what to be

Make me some suggestions

Good or bad which is the best for me

If you're after

Fun and laughter

This aggravates you

Some reformers

Say a warmer

Climate awaits you

If it's naughty to rouge your lips

Shake your shoulders and twist your hips

Let a lady confess

I'd wanna be bad

If it's naughty to vamp the men

Sleep each morning till after ten

Then the answer is

Yes I wanna be bad

This thing of being a good little

Goody is all very well

What can you do when you're loaded

With plenty of health and vigour

When you're learning what lips are for

It is naughty to ask for more

Let a lady confess

I'd wanna be bad

If it's naughty to rouge your lips

Shake your shoulders and twist your hips

Let a lady confess

I wanna be bad

It is naughty to vamp the men

Sleep each morning till after ten

Then the answer is

Yes I wanna be bad

I've made my mind up to wind up

By having a bell of fun

What do I care

If they call me a son of a damsel's daughter

If it's wrong to let someone take

Just a little tiny kiss by mistake

Let a lady confess I want to be bad

While all around me they tell me how terribly naughty I am

Nobody's caring and nobody's giving a damsel credit

If it's wrong to let someone take

A kiss or two just for friendship sake

Let a lady confess

I want to be bad
