[Arctic Monkeys - The Bad Thing lyrics]
Do the bad thing take off your wedding ring
But it won't make it that much easier
It might make it worse
Oh, the night's like a whirlwind
Somebody's girlfriend's talking to me
But it's alright
She's saying that he's not gonna slap
Me or try to attack me
He's not the jealous type
And I only need to get half
An excuse and I'm away
But when there's no excuses
That's much easier to say i've been before
And all these capers make us too
Good for her to ignore
See, she's talking but I'm not entirely sure
Do the bad thing take off your wedding ring
But it won't make it that much easier
It might make it worse
Oh, a sudden disheartener
Somebody's partner's talking to me
But I don't know that is what she isn't
She murmurs things to confirm that
The tragedy is true and I knew
How could she not? She could
Have anyone she wants
And I'm struggling to think
Of an immediate response
Like, "I don't mind
It'd be a big mistake for you to wait
And let me waste your time
Really, love, it's fine"
I said, "Really, love, it's fine"
And then the first time it occurred
That there was something to destroy
I knew before the invitation that
There was this ploy
Oh, but she carried on suggesting
A struggle to refuse
She said, "It's the red wine this time
" but that is no excuse
But it won't make it that much easier
It might make it worse
Oh, the night's like a whirlwind
Somebody's girlfriend's talking to me
But it's alright
She's saying that he's not gonna slap
Me or try to attack me
He's not the jealous type
And I only need to get half
An excuse and I'm away
But when there's no excuses
That's much easier to say i've been before
And all these capers make us too
Good for her to ignore
See, she's talking but I'm not entirely sure
Do the bad thing take off your wedding ring
But it won't make it that much easier
It might make it worse
Oh, a sudden disheartener
Somebody's partner's talking to me
But I don't know that is what she isn't
She murmurs things to confirm that
The tragedy is true and I knew
How could she not? She could
Have anyone she wants
And I'm struggling to think
Of an immediate response
Like, "I don't mind
It'd be a big mistake for you to wait
And let me waste your time
Really, love, it's fine"
I said, "Really, love, it's fine"
And then the first time it occurred
That there was something to destroy
I knew before the invitation that
There was this ploy
Oh, but she carried on suggesting
A struggle to refuse
She said, "It's the red wine this time
