Went uptown to see my cousin
Plays guitar, sounds like a chainsaw buzzing
In the crowd, I see his mom and dad
I said "Hey, hey Uncle, man your son is bad"
[Chorus]
But sometimes, sometimes bad is bad
Cool is a rule, but, sometimes, bad is bad.
Across the street, a neon sign
All you can eat for a dollar ninety nine
Aww, that old stew is the baddest in the land
But one dollar's worth was all that I could stand
[Chorus]
Back uptown to see Marie
Nobody home, I opened the door with my key
"I love you, Huey" was the note I read
But there's a strange pair of shoes underneath the bed
[Chorus]
