Call it bad My bad my bad influence Big town holds me back Big town skims my mind Small minds wear me down Spreading salt on fertile ground Honest pleasures now forsaken Drastic measures to be taken Can't accept your difference They call it bad influence CHORUS Free mind, free soul It's time for liberation to flow Free mind, free soul It's time so let your future unfold Call it bad My bad my bad influence Break out of the mold before the mold sets in Dangerous walls are closin' in They twist the truth Then give it a spin Love's a grenade, I'll pull the pin CHORUS The circle is wide Shadows flower into the light Bad influence Bad such a bad influence You think I'm bad You think I'm bad Well I'm the most fun that you ever had So good, so good But people say I'm a bad influence Wide mouths, narrow minds Can't accept your difference Open season on new ideas They call it bad influence CHORUS My bad my bad influence Just a bad influence My bad my bad influence Call it bad My bad my bad influence Wide mouths with narrow minds Narrow minds, creak and grind Rally to a peaceful sound Let the barriers tumble down My bad my bad influence My bad my bad influence Break out of the mold before the mold sets in Dangerous walls are closin' in They twist the truth Then give it a spin If love's a grenade, better pull the pin! Call it bad My bad my bad influence
