It's three o'clock in the morning
I'm getting ready for bed
It came without a warning
This paper that I read
How do they know me?
How do they dare?
They spread all their lies around us
Why should they care if they're to blame
I'm just a player in the their game
I've got a bad reputation
I've got a bad attitude
Ain't nobody gonna put me down
Ain't nobody gonna shove me around
I've got a bad, bad, bad reputation
It read that I was down and out
Had no place to go
Then this chick came out of nowhere
Who I don't even know
How do you sleep at night (I don't know)
Knowing the things you do?
It doesn't matter at all
Until it happens to you
Don't you know it baby
I've got a bad reputation
I've got a bad attitude
Ain't nobody gonna put me down
Ain't nobody gonna shove me around
I've got a bad, bad, bad reputation
