C#m                                             E
We don't care what people say, we know the truth
B
Enough is enough of this horse shit
C#m                                           E
I am not a freak, I was born with my free gun
                  B
Don't tell me I'm less than my freedom

C#m                                 E            B
I'm a bitch, I'm a loser baby maybe I should quit
C#m                                     E             B
I'm a jerk, wish I had the money but I can't find work
C#m                                         E              B
I'm a brat, I'm a selfish punk, I really should be smacked
C#m                                                 E              B
My parents tried until they got divorced 'cause I ruined their lives

A                 F#m
I'm a bad kid and I will survive
         C#m              B
Oh I'm a bad kid, don't know wrong from right
A                 F#m
I'm a bad kid and this is my life
           C#m               B
One of the bad kids, don't know wrong from right
(This is my life)

Chorus:
E            F#m           C#m      D
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
E                    F#m             A   B
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid baby
E            F#m           C#m      D
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
E                    F#m             A   B
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid baby
A bad kid baby
(Don't be insecure)

I'm a twit, degenerate young rebel and I'm proud of it
Pump your fist if you would rather mess up than put up with this
I'm a nerd, I chew gum and smoke in your face, I'm absurd
I'm so bad and I don't give a damn, I love it when you're mad
When you're mad, when you're mad.

I'm a bad kid and I will survive
Oh I'm a bad kid, don't know wrong from right
I'm a bad kid and this is my life
One of the bad kids, don't know wrong from right
(This is my life)

Chorus

A            F#m
I'm not that typical baby
      C#m              B
I'm a bad kid like my mom and dad made me
A            F#m
I'm not that cool and you hate me
      C#m                  B
I'm a bad kid, that's the way that they made me
A                  F#m
I'm a bad kid, I'm disastrous
             C#m       B
Give me your money or I'll hold my breath
A                 F#m
I'm a bad kid and I will survive
           C#m               B
One of the bad kids, don't know wrong from right

Chorus:
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid, baby
Don't be insecure if your heart is pure
You're still good to me if you're a bad kid, baby
A bad kid, baby
A bad kid, baby

A bad kid baby
A bad kid baby
A bad kid baby
