Bad girl.

(SPOKEN INTRO - Dramatic piano underlay, distant thunder, engine idling) The sun hit her leather jacket like a holy fire, and she looked at me like I was the biggest fool in the county. She was the prettiest girl in town, but her eyes promised total destruction. She said, "Buy me a drink and take me for a ride... if you think you can handle it." Verse 1 She laughed like trouble was the sweetest song she’d ever heard, Climbed into the passenger side without a single word. In a black leather skirt, smelling like expensive perfume and rain, Stepping straight out of midnight and onto a runaway train! Every guy in the county was hooked on her dangerous face, Hoping for a chance to win a lap in her lethal race. Fast cars, fast drinks, a wild night out on the town, I thought I was the king, thought I’d never come down! When she held my hand, nobody’s touch ever felt so sweet, I was falling for the prettiest bad girl on the street! (BUILD-UP / PRE-CHORUS - Guitars kick in hard, sweeping orchestral rock) And the streetlights flash like a warning light! I thought I won the jackpot on a Friday night! (CHORUS - Massive, operatic hard rock explosion, multi-layered backing vocals) MY SMALL-TOWN BAD GIRL — LOOKIN’ SO FINE! THOUGHT I WAS THE LUCKIEST GUY IN LINE! Dinner was great and the romantic mood was high, She had that devilish sparkle inside her eye! Pretty as a picture, burnin’ hot, burnin’ red! Spinning all those dangerous dreams inside my head! Yeah, my small-town bad girl — ended the night with a twist! She leaned in real close like she was gonna give me a kiss... THEN SHE PLANTED HER BOOT RIGHT BETWEEN MY THIGHS! (PRE-CHORUS - Soaring lead vocals with dramatic guitar bends) Oh, my buddies warned me ’bout girls like her! Fast talk, high heels, and a total blur! She took my heart... and she smashed it to glass, Then dropped me to my knees right on the grass! (CHORUS - Full force, roaring guitars and brass-heavy rock orchestration) MY SMALL-TOWN BAD GIRL — LOOKIN’ SO FINE! THOUGHT I WAS THE LUCKIEST GUY IN LINE! Dinner was great and the romantic mood was high, She had that devilish sparkle inside her eye! Pretty as a picture, burnin’ hot, burnin’ red! Spinning all those dangerous dreams inside my head! Yeah, my small-town bad girl — left me double-folded on the floor! Said "Thanks for the date!" as she walked out the door! (OUTRO - Slow piano fade with heavy groan) Yeah... good girls take your heart... BUT PRETTY BAD GIRLS KICK YOU WHERE IT HURTS!.
