Brendan Benson Lyrics
"Bad For Me"

Well, here it goes again, another losing streak
Guess I'm on a roll
An' I haven't got a chance, I'm too weak
She sucks my soul

And this St. Christopher that hangs around my neck
Has got to be a fake
'Cause I crash every time in the same old wreck
The same mistake

And I'll make a mental note so I don't forget
A little reminder of what hasn't happened yet

Well, maybe she is bad for me
But I don't care to see
'Cause what I want and what I need
Are the same to me in the end

And there's a voice in my head sayin' no
But my mouth says yes
I should stop I know, but I really wanna go
It's okay I guess

An' I've played with fire so many times before
Guess I'll never learn
Just like an addict I keep comin' back for more
Come to love that burn

And I'll make a mental note so I don't forget
A reminder of what hasn't happened yet

Well, maybe she is bad for me
But I don't care to see
'Cause what I want and what I need
Are the same to me

Well, maybe she is bad for me
And I don't care to see
'Cause what I want and what I need
Are the same to me

There's a feelin' that I get deep in my gut
But I pay no mind
Instinct is out of sync but so what
Love is blind

I'll make a mental note so I don't forget
A reminder of what hasn't happened yet

She's gonna be the death of me
Here it comes again
The only leaf left on the tree
And blowin' in the wind

Well, maybe she is bad for me
And I don't care to see
'Cause what I want and what I need
Are the same for me in the end, in the end
