Helen Kane I Want To Be Bad Lyrics

To be or not to be -
That is not the question!
I decided long ago to be!
With me, it's what to be,
Now, make me some suggestions,
Good or bad,
Which is the best for me?
When you're after fun and laughter, this aggravates
you,
Some reformers say a warmer climate awaits you!

If it's naughty to rouge your lips,
Shake your shoulders and shake your hips,
Let a lady confess, I want to be bad!

If it's naughty to vamp the men,
Sleep each morning till after ten,
Then the answer is yes, I want to be bad!

This thing of being a good little goodie is all very
well,
What can you do when you're loaded with plenty of
health
And vigor. When you're learning what lips are for,
And it's naughty to ask for more,
Let a lady confess, I want to be bad!

Oh, if it's naughty to rouge your lips,
Shake your shoulders and shake your hips,
Then, let a lady confess, I want to be bad!
Boop-boop-a-doop!

And, if it's naughty to vamp the men,
Sleep each morning till after ten,
Then the answer is yes, I want to be bad!

Nobody cares just how blue and how lonesome I am!
If I have troubles and laugh, why they don't give a
dam-
Sel credit.

If it's wrong to let someone take,
Just a little kiss by mistake,
Let a lady confess, I want to be ba-da-da-da-da-da
Bad!
