I took the long way home
And I'm not sure why
I guess I don't know how to deal
With all these things on my mind
Like how my coffee is black
And that's how you like yours
How the sweetness of your voice
Hits my ear and dissolves, but
[Chorus]
You're a bad idea and I know it
You're a bad idea and I know it
Well, I will do it anyway
My heart won't listen to my brain
You're a bad idea and I know
I want to be a little reckless with you
Pick a penny up on the unlucky side
Trace a curse word into the back of a car
That hasn't been washed in a while
And there's worn off paint where the rust shows through
The same things I see in me and you
How the concrete sprouts blades of gra**
And I'll smile when you fill our tank up, but
[Chorus]
You're a bad idea and I know it
You're a bad idea and I know it
Well, I will do it anyway
My heart won't listen to my brain
You're a bad idea and I know
You know the best ways to disappear
And you do what you do because you feel like it
You're unpredictable
But there's something about you I'd like to know
I'd like to know
You're a bad idea and I know it
You're a bad idea and I know
You're a bad idea and I know it
You're a bad idea and I know it
You're a bad idea and I know it
And you do what you do because you feel like it
