Girl All The Bad Guys Want Lyrics


8 O'clock Monday night and I'm waiting
To finally talk to a girl a little cooler than me
Her name is Lola, she's a rocker with a nose ring
She wears a 2-way, but I'm not quite sure what that meansAnd when she walks
All the wind blows and the Angels sing
But she doesn't notice me'Cause she's watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over tough guys
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyesIt's like a bad movie
She's looking through me
If you were me then you'd be screaming
Someone shoot me as I fail miserably
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys wantShe likes the godsmack and I like agent Orange
Her cd changer's full of singers that are mad at their dad
She said she'd like to score some reefer and a 40
She'll never know that I'm the best that she'll never haveAnd when she walks all the wind blows and the angels sing
But she'll never notice me'Cause she's watchin' wrestling

Creamin' over tough guys
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes
She likes 'em with a mustache
Race track, season pass
Drivin' in a transam
Does a mullet make a manIt's like a bad movie
She's looking through me
If you were me then you'd be screaming
Someone shoot me as I fail miserably
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys wantThere she goes again with fishnets on
And dreadlocks in her hair
She broke my heart, I want to be sedated
All I wanted was to see her nakedNow I'm watchin' wrestling
Tryin' to be a tough guy
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in my eyes
I can't grow a mustache
And I ain't got no season pass
All I got's a mopedIt's like a bad movie
She's looking through me
If you were me then you'd be screaming
Someone shoot me as I fail miserably
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want

Bowling for Soup (acronym: BFS, or sometimes B4S) is a pop punk band based in Denton, Texas (but originally from Wichita Falls, Texas) formed in 1994 from the ruins of an old metal band. Quoting Jaret Reddick, the lead singer, "we wanted to make happy music". They're known for their often humorous lyrics, upbeat guitar riffs, and Jaret's distinctive voice.

They are best known for their singles "Girl All The Bad Guys Want" in 2002 on Drunk Enough To Dance which was nominated for a 2003 Grammy Award for "Best Pop Performance by a Group or Duo" and "1985" (originally written by Mitch Allan of SR-71) in 2004 on A Hangover You Don't Deserve. Speaking with Songfacts about "Girl All The Bad Girls Want" in a 2010 interview, Reddick said: "'Girl All The Bad Guys Want' was my very first co-write ever, and me and Butch Walker sat in a room and literally wrote that song in 30 minutes. I mean, it was done."

The band's name is derived from comedian Steve Martin's "Bowling for Sh*t" routine from his 1978 comedy album, Wild and Crazy Guy, itself a reference to Bowling for Dollars. Jaret Reddick has also stated that at the end of his last performance with his old band one of the members came on stage and proclaimed "Come back next week when we play with our new band... Bowling For Soup!". This was supposed be to be joke name, but since they couldn't think of anything better the name stuck. Their single '1985' can be found on the UK and the Norwegian editions of Singstar Rocks for the PS2.

They have also became hits on Radio Disney with edits of "1985", "Punk Rock 101", "High School Never Ends", and the inclusion of their version of "I Melt With You" in the Disney movie "Sky High". They have also written and recorded "Today Is Gonna Be A Great Day" as the theme song for Disney's "Phineas and Ferb"
