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 walking
Bad man
Bad tongue talking
