I Got It Bad, Bad, Bad, Bad, Bad

Liner Notes
I had this hook in the back of my head for a while. I finally decided to write something for it.
I posted as pop. I think this could fit EDM. I love the 80's, so always love that. I'm open to ideas if you wish to collab.
Lyrics
V1 He was dancing At the metro And I couldn’t help but stare
The chiseled face The fitting jeans And that long brown flowing hair
He had the moves I felt his beat Sparks were floating in the air
Chorus I got it bad I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad I’m captivated Infatuated I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad I’m wholly obsessed Totally possessed I got it bad I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
V2 I make my way Across the floor While I try to get a grip
He looks my way I flash a smile As my heart begins to skip
A rookie move I’m almost there Now we’re standing hip to hip
Chorus I got it bad I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad I’m captivated Infatuated I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad I’m wholly obsessed Totally possessed I got it bad I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
Bridge We dance all night One touch/step away If not today He’ll be mine next Saturday
Chorus I got it bad I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad I’m captivated Infatuated I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad I’m wholly obsessed Totally possessed I got it bad I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

You are funny -lol. I'm so glad you enjoyed the lyrics. You can enjoy the song too now. Kate Staton and Lemonbrew created a fantastic song from my lyrics.
----- Ich habe es heute als erster gehört ;-) ------ 100x Wie kommen wir nach FAWM in Kontakt?
I don't understand what you are saying to me. Is there an issue with our song?
I can feel the driving rhythm in these lyrics. Especially in the repetition of the chorus. I liked the simple story too. Very vivid, could imagine the music video of the metro dancing bit.
This totally feels like an 80's lyric. Nicely written!
Yes, I love the 80's. Thank you!
Great rhythm, great lyrical drive. Really nice work.
Thank you for your thoughtful and kind comments ❤️
Love the bad, bad, bad, bad, bad! Drives it home! This has such a built-in meter that I was putting a tune to this while reading it! Glad you have a collab going -- looking forward to hearing this!
Thank you so much. I try to make sure the metering works as I write. Sometimes I do better than others -lol.
This is awesome! What a great read and write!, The meter, the rhyme reads right off the page can’t wait to hear it at lemon brews, dance, pop creation! Write On!!!
Thanks so much KC. The song will be a collab with @katestantonsings and @lemonbrew. I am very excited to hear what they do.
Great to read your lyrics again…Been too long. Real nice rhythm and flow to the words. Hopefully someone puts this to music. It’s a well written platform. Should be a fun project…
Thank you. The song is in progress :)
Hi, ich freue mich sehr auf den Song!
Me too! Thanks for collaborating on this!
I'm imagining a sped up syncopated vocal melody for "bad, bad, bad, bad" with snaps :) Great lyrics, Andrea! I am looking forward to hearing your singer produce this!
Great storytelling, and I love the use of repetition and internal rhymes in the chorus. I hope someone turns this into an 80s-style dance hit!
Thanks so much for your thoughtful comments. I love 80's music. I also think an 80's style would be a good fit 😊
Solid write, progression towards the goal with a bit of mystery left at the end. I love that unresolved series of 'bad's' in the chorus line.
Thanks, Andy. Sometimes a happy ending feels cheesy. I'm not sure the ending isn't still cheesy, but I like it better this way. Glad you enjoyed it.
Brilliant lyrics full of energy. Singing and dancing from the page. Can't wait to hearing them.
Thanks, Nadia. I love you positive comments!
I wish I did EDM or dance pop, this would be so fun to roll with. Nice write Andrea!
I'm glad you like it. I don't think it needs to be a dance tune, but that would be fun :)
I hear this as a 50s/early 60s type thing - mind if I give it a try?
Thank you so much for the offer, but I really need a female for this song. I hope you understand.
Your song, your prerogative.
This is SO full of energy and enthusiasm! it’s going to make a great song! All the repetition in the title is Ear Candy. Can’t wait to hear it.
Your comments always make me feel happy. Thanks so much. Your first lyrics were amazing. I'll be checking back to see if you post more ❤️
You got it bad but oh is this good! It sings off the page! Awesome!
Well, dang--sounds like maybe I'm not your "type". [Sob]
I DID have "long flowing hair" during my midlife crisis several decades ago--a ponytail years after they were no longer "in"...
Great job on the lyrics! ❤️
