Dat Is Bad [Song]

DAT IS BAD
By Shadow
Album: Moods of the Shadow, T&T 1993

What is good and what is bad?
The answer for this rather hard
A beautiful soul in the human race
Trapped in a body with an ugly face
That is bad! Me say, "Bad!", me say "Bad...bad!"
The beautiful ladies will pass him straight
Busy, busy, busy like they running late
They don't want to talk to this ugly beast
But that brother in the body is a hidden priest
That is bad. Me say, "Bad!", me say "Bad...bad!"
Yea, that is bad! Me say, "Bad!", me say, "Bad...bad!"

The heart can feel what the eyes can see
But the eyes don't see what the heart conceal
It's easy to fall for a nice skin teeth
But all skin teeth ent no laughing teeth
Yea, dat is bat, dat is bad, dat is bad!

[Bad]

What is good and what is bad?
The answer for this rather hard
To be living in a body that don't look too right
Is like living in a world where there is only night
That is bad! Me say, "Bad!", me say, "Bad...bad!"
Nobody want to see you for who you are
They blaming you for ugly and they staying far
They act as though you ugly up yourself for spite
Some people in this world they ent thinking right
That is bad! Me say, "Bad!", me say, "Bad...bad!"
Yea, that is bad! Me say, "Bad!", me say, "Bad...bad!"

The heart can feel what the eyes can see
But the eyes don't see what the heart conceal
It's easy to fall for a nice skin teeth
But all skin teeth ent no laughing teeth
Yea, dat is bad, dat is bad, dat is bad!
Dat is bad! [Me say, me say, me say, "Bad!"]
Dat is bad, dat is bad, dat is bad!
Dat is bad! [Me say, me say, me say, "Bad!"]

What is good and what is bad?
The answer for this rather hard
Some people really suffer for the way they look
Most people watch the cover, they don't read the book
That is bad! Me say, "Bad!", me say, "Bad...bad!"
In places of employment your chances slim
It's really hard to compete with the good-looking
You looking strong and healthy and your papers fine
You first in the line but you last in mind
That is bad! Me say, "Bad!", me say, "Bad...bad!"
That is bad! Me say, "Bad!", me say, "Bad...bad!"

The heart can feel what the eyes can see
But the eyes don't see what the heart conceal
It's easy to fall for a nice skin teeth
But all skin teeth ent no laughing teeth...oh no, no, no!
Yea, dat is bad, dat is bad, dat is bad...bad!
[Me say, me say, me say, "Bad!"]
Dat is bad, dat is bad, dat is bad...bad!
[Me say, me say, me say, "Bad!"]
[Me say, me say, me say, "Bad!"]
[Me say, me say, me say, "Bad!"]....

A Note From The Gull


Thank you for your wisdom, Shadow. Look out for Shadow's 2009 release of the CD "Ecstasy"

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
