Born Bad Songtext
von Elton John

You′ve been crying
And there ain't no use denying
It was me
Who put you through this misery
And I′d like to say I'm sorry but I can't
No, I can′t
Nothing′s gonna change me
Baby, that's the way I am

I was born bad
Always been the same, yes, I was born bad
Never gonna change ′cause I was born bad
Only me to blame 'cause I was born bad
Yes, I was born bad
Always been my habit, I was born bad
Just can′t seem to help it, I was born bad
Always gonna happen, I was born bad
'Cause I was born bad


I mistreat you (I mistreat you)
And you know, I always cheat you
But that′s me
And that's the it's always been
And I′d like to say I′m sorry but I can't
No, I can′t
Nothing's gonna change me
Baby, that′s the way I am

'Cause I was born bad
Always been the same, yeah, I was born bad
Never gonna change ′cause I was born bad
Only me to blame, oh, I was born bad
Oh, I was born bad
Always been my habit, I was born bad
Just can't seem to help it, I was born bad
Always gonna happen
I was born bad, oh, I was born bad
'Cause I was born bad, I was born bad

Born bad
Always been the same, yes, I was born bad
Never gonna change ′cause I was born bad
Only me to blame, oh, I was born bad
Oh, I was born bad
Always been my habit, I was born bad
Just can′t seem to help it, I was born bad
Always gonna happen, I was born bad


Always been so bad
Always been bad
Always been so bad

And I was born bad
Always been the same, yeah, I was born bad
Never gonna change 'cause I was born bad
Only me to blame ′cause I was born bad
Yeah, I was born bad
Always been my habit, I was born bad
Just can't seem to help it, I was born bad
Always gonna happen, I was born bad
And I was born bad, I was born bad
And I was born bad, I was born bad

Born bad
Always been the same, yes, I was born bad
Never gonna change ′cause I was born bad
Only me to blame, I was born bad
Yeah, I was born bad
Always been my habit, I was born bad
Just can't seem to help it, I was born bad
Always gonna happen, I was born bad

Yeah, yeah, I was born bad
Yeah, yeah, I was born bad
Yeah, yeah, I was born bad
Only me to blame ′cause I was born bad
