Lyrics

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well, it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not someone who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Lyrics

Flo Rida!
Bad boys, bad boys
Alexandra, girl, I know what you like!
Ba-bad boys, bad boys (Oh oh!)
Bad boys, bad boys (Hey, yeah)
Ba-bad boys, bad boys

Some people call them players
But I'm far from terrified
'Cause somehow I'm drawn to danger
And have been all of my life

It feels my heart's divided
Halfway 'tween wrong and right
I know I'm playing with fire
But I don't mind

Yeah, the bad boys are always catching my eye
I said the bad boys are always spinning my mind
Even though I know they're no good for me
It's the risk I take for the chemistry
With the bad boys always catching my eye
Ooh... (Bad boys)

Some think it's complicated
But they're straight up fun for me (Oh, oh)
I don't need no explanation
It's nothing more than what you see here

My heart still feels divided
Halfway 'tween wrong and right (Wrong and right)
I know I'm playing with fire
But I don't mind (Oh, ooh)

Yeah, the bad boys are always catching my eye
I said the bad boys are always spinning my mind
Even though I know they're no good for me
It's the risk I take for the chemistry
With the bad boys always catching my eye
I know you want me shawty 'cause I'm a (Bad boy)

Hey, sh-shawty can't help it
She so, so addicted to them rougher fellas
With even the alphabet
She only sings the crooked letters
Let mama take all the risks for that chemistry
She like them tougher than leather
Not even the paws, it's more like a mama bee
Out lost that's on the reg'lar
By any means necessary, girl
She likes them ruthless, that's my world
It's not the news, it's what I heard
To get them more the merrier
It's not a big surprise
I know them bad boys catch your eyes
Look at her walk when I go in disguise
You'll have them shawty, don't worry, you fly

Yeah, the bad boys are always catching my eye (Always)
I said the bad boys are always spinning my mind (Bad boys)
Even though I know they're no good for me
It's the risk I take for the chemistry (Oh)
With the bad boys always catching my eye
Yeah, the bad boys are always spinning my mind (Ooh-eh, ooh-ah)
I said the bad boys are always catching my eye
Bad boys, bad boys
