Hey, can I tell you a little story   About a bad man looking for glory?   Oh, he wasn't such a bad man   But he kindly let his fame seep into his brain      Hey, can I tell you a little secret?   You see, the bad man, he was a lot like me   Oh, he had a little wisdom   But he traded it away for a fifteen minute reign      Bad man walking, bad man   Bad tongue talking      Hey, can you spare a little sympathy?   'Cause right now I think it's what I really need   Oh, do you think you really know yourself?   Are you sure what you might do   If the choice was up to you?      Bad man walking, bad man   Bad tongue talking      Bad man walking, bad man   Bad tongue talking, bad man   Bad man walking, bad man   Bad tongue talking
