Bad Man (You said you had changed)

Chastised-Critisized-Castigated.
Manipulated-Confused and aggravated.
Destroyed you and you destroyed me.
So just stab him, when he isn't looking.
He's a bad man.

(Chorus)
When he comes in the room.
I just play hide and seek.
It's just I don't seek.
I just hide.
Because he's a bad man.

You say you're adherent.
You said you changed,
You said you were different
You're just fucked up.
I'm just arranged.
To this democratic household.
You come in the house and hit Ma.
Pick me up and lock me in the car.

(Chorus)
When he comes in the room.
I just play hide and seek.
It's just I don't seek.
I just hide.
Because he's a bad man.

You said you was a different man.
You said you changed,
But you're a bad man.
You said you was a different man.
You said you changed,
But you're a bad man.
