I walk in late let the whole room stare
Little bit of trouble hanging in the air
They know my name but they don’t know why
Truth gets small when the rumors get high
I’ve been the saint I’ve been the sin
Depends which story you believe I’m in
Everybody talks like they know my side
Funny how a whisper learns to multiply
Maybe I’m wrong maybe they’re right
Maybe I just look better in a different light
I got a bad reputation
Good, good, good good imagination
I got a bad reputation
No no no no explanation
Bad reputation bad reputation
Bad reputation looks good on me
I heard I’m cold heard I’m too much
Heard I leave a little chaos with every touch
Heard I’m a storm heard I’m a flame
Funny, they keep talking but don’t even know my name
I never promised I would play it safe
Never learned to smile with a borrowed face
If being myself is my biggest crime
Put my name in lights and give me the time
Maybe I’m wrong maybe they’re right
Maybe I just look better in a different light
I got a bad reputation
Good, good, good good imagination
I got a bad reputation
No no no no explanation
Bad reputation bad reputation
Bad reputation looks good on me
Love me loud hate me louder
Either way it doesn’t matter
Throw my name into the crowd
And let the rumor make me proud
If you need somebody to blame at night
Make sure you spell my name right
I got a bad reputation
Good, good, good good imagination
I got a bad reputation
No no no no explanation
Bad reputation bad reputation
Bad reputation looks good on me
Bad bad reputation
Sweet little complication
Bad reputation
Bad reputation
If that’s what you see
It looks damn good on me
