lyrics

You're so radical
Like a little lightning bug that's shining
Right in front of me
And I know I'm not quite cool enough for you
Doesn't matter much to me

You're the center of
Every little love triangle
And I'm tangled up
And I'm feeling all screwed up
But I won't give up on you

I'm bad - bad as in good
I'm sad - but I'm not emo
I'm bad - bad as in good
I'm sad - but I'm not emo

You're the reason it's good
You're the reason it's good
And I don't need to,
But I'd like to meet you

You're so rad, but I can't
Dismiss this ghost in my head
My head is beet red
I wish this was you in my bed

I'm bad - bad as in good
I'm sad - but I'm not emo
I'm bad - bad as in good
I'm sad - but I'm not emo

You're the reason it's good
You're the reason it's good
And I don't need to,
But I'd like to meet you

Little lady, you're gonna see
Little lady, you're gonna see
That every night with me is so rad
Little lady, you're gonna see
Little lady, you're gonna see
That every night with me wouldn't be so bad

I'm bad - bad as in good
I'm sad - but I'm not emo
I'm bad - bad as in good
I'm sad - but I'm not emo
I'm bad - bad as in good (You are so radical to me)
I'm sad - but I'm not emo
I'm bad - bad as in good (You are so radical to me)
I'm sad - but I'm not emo
