Bad Idea

Intro — WHISPERED, PLAYFUL

Uh-oh...

You really thought I'd behave?

Cute.

Verse 1 — LOW, CONFIDENT

Walk in late, everybody turns

Little bit sweet, little bit burned

You keep talking like you know my name

But you don't know how I play this game

Cherry gloss with a warning sign

Cross my line and you're wasting time

I got that look, yeah, you know the one

Trouble starts when I say "come on"

Pre-Chorus — BUILDING

One step, two step, getting too close

Should I stay? Nobody knows

Heartbeat jumping like a stereo

Three, two, one—there we go

CHORUS — BIG, BOUNCY, CATCHY

Bad idea, bad idea

Why you looking at me like that?

Bad idea, bad idea

Now you got me acting like that

Uh-oh, here we go again

Too much chaos with my friends

Bad idea, bad idea

But I kinda like it like that

POST-CHORUS — GROUP CHANTS

Na-na-na, that's a bad idea

Na-na-na, getting louder

Na-na-na, that's a bad idea

Oops—too late now!

Verse 2 — RAP-SING, ATTITUDE

Phone on five percent, still outside

No plans, but we got a whole night

Everybody saying, "Don't do that"

Which basically means I'm about to do that

Little bit reckless, never too serious

Main character, acting mysterious

If it's a mess, then call my name

I didn't start it... okay, maybe I did

Pre-Chorus — HIGHER VOCALS

One step, two step, getting too close

Should I stay? Nobody knows

Heartbeat jumping like a stereo

Three, two, one—there we go

CHORUS — FULL GROUP

Bad idea, bad idea

Why you looking at me like that?

Bad idea, bad idea

Now you got me acting like that

Uh-oh, here we go again

Too much chaos with my friends

Bad idea, bad idea

But I kinda like it like that

BRIDGE — SOFT → EXPLOSIVE

Maybe I'm trouble

Maybe you're curious

Maybe this whole thing

Is getting ridiculous

But if you're gonna jump

Don't hesitate

'Cause when I say "go"

There's no rewind button—

FINAL CHORUS — HUGE

Bad idea, bad idea

Everybody knows I'm trouble

Bad idea, bad idea

Turn it up and make it double

Uh-oh, here we go again

Too much chaos with my friends

Bad idea, bad idea

Yeah, I kinda like it like that

OUTRO — WHISPERED

Was it a bad idea?

...Absolutely.

Would I do it again?

Obviously.
