I've Been Bad Again

Cover it up with big words

Just a self-indulgent little girl

And you won't tell will you

Cause mommy's coming home

And I've been bad again

Hide what I mean

Say it in pretty verse

Makes it easier to deal

When no one gets the meaning

And I've been bad again

Spoiled and reaching

With grubby little hands

Wanting what everyone else has

Acting innocent all the while

And I've been bad again

Moods wash over like a plague

And I can be so unpleasant

When I should curtsy and smile

And I think mean thoughts

And I've been bad again

Feeling superior addictively

Acting so full of pride

And I can be so wrathful

And show no mercy to the fallen

And I've been bad again

Just a little scratch

Something easily explained

Another lie, another fable

Won't let you know the truth

That I've been bad again

Dirty little secrets

What goes on behind closed doors

Vices indulged shamelessly

And I can't keep it down anymore

And I've been bad again

What you don't know won't hurt you

And what I know can kill me

But ignore it anyway

I don't want to know

That I've been bad again
