Liz Moriondo - Bad News Lyrics

Bad News
Liz Moriondo, Steve Mitchell

Verse 1: Bad news, bad news
He drops in, kicks off his shoes
Overstays his welcome every time
Bad news, bad news
When times are good, he sneaks up on you
It builds him up when you break down and cry

Chorus: He's a bangin' sound in your engine block
At 2 am, he's a telephone call
He brings out the worst in you
He's a check you said would never bounce
You have to take him sitting down
He's no pink lines when what you need is two
He's bad, bad, bad, bad news
He's bad, bad, bad, bad news

Verse 2: Bad news, bad news
When you're in the red and you got the blues
He shows up to stay and can't pay rent
Bad news, bad news
Like an empty jar of 90 proof
Party's over and where are all your friends

Chorus

Bridge: He knows it when you're in a fix
Hits you with a ton of bricks
Drop you like the cold hard truth
Shut the door, lock it up
Get a chair, prop it up
Let him in once and you're screwed

He's a check you said would never bounce
You have to take him sitting down
He's no pink lines when what you need is two
He's bad, bad, bad, bad news
He's bad, bad, bad, bad news
He's bad, bad, bad, bad news
