About

Like 2014’s “Blank Space,” “I Did Something Bad” plays on the media and public’s perception of Taylor, with her singing as the character they portray her as.

I Did Something Bad Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I never trust a narcissist, but they love me
So I play 'em like a violin
And I make it look, oh, so easy
'Cause for every lie I tell them, they tell me three
This is how the world works
Now all he thinks about is me

[Pre-Chorus]
I can feel the flames on my skin
Crimson red paint on my lips
If a man talks shit, then I owe him nothin'
I don't regret it one bit 'cause he had it comin'

[Chorus]
They say I did somethin' bad
Then why's it feel so good?
They say I did somethin' bad
But why's it feel so good?
Most fun I ever had
And I'd do it over and over and over again if I could
It just felt so good, good

[Post-Chorus]
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da
Da-da, da, da

[Verse 2]
I never trust a playboy, but they love me
So I fly 'em all around the world
And I let them think they saved me
They never see it comin', what I do next
This is how the world works
You gotta leave before you get left

[Pre-Chorus]
I can feel the flames on my skin
He says, "Don't throw away a good thing"
But if he drops my name, then I owe him nothin'
And if he spends my change, then he had it comin'

[Chorus]
They say I did somethin' bad (Da-da)
Then why's it feel so good?
They say I did somethin' bad
But why's it feel so good?
Most fun I ever had
And I'd do it over and over and over again if I could
It just felt so good, good

[Post-Chorus]
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da
(It just felt so good)
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da
Da-da, da, da

[Bridge]
They're burning all the witches, even if you aren't one
They got their pitchforks and proof, their receipts and reasons
They're burning all the witches, even if you aren't one
So light me up (Light me up), light me up (Light me up)
Light me up, go ahead and light me up (Light me up)
Light me up (Light me up), light me up (Light me up)
Light me up (Light me up), light me up

[Chorus]
They say I did somethin' bad (Oh)
Then why's it feel so good? (So good)
They say I did somethin' bad
But why's it feel so (Good) good?
Most fun I ever had (Most fun I ever had)
And I'd do it over and over and over again if I could
It just felt so good (Good), good

[Post-Chorus]
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da (Bad)
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da
Oh, they say I did somethin' bad (They say I did somethin' bad)
Ra-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-di-da-da
Then why's it feel so good, good?

[Outro]
So good (Bad), why's it feel so good?
Why's it feel, why's it feel so good? (Bad)
It just felt so good, good

What did Taylor Swift say about "I Did Something Bad"?

I feel like I should start by saying that, like, this group of producers is a lot smaller than it was on 1989. I picked people who I worked with on 1989, but I feel like they were versatile enough to kill 1989 and make something new. There would be no way for me to make something even similar to 198...
