Bad Medicine

English translation

Your love is like bad medicine

Bad medicine is what I need

Oh, oh, oh, shake it up, just like bad medicine

There ain't no doctor that can cure my disease

(Bad medicine)

I ain't got a fever, I got a permanent disease

It'll take more than a doctor to prescribe a remedy

I got lots of money, but it isn't what I need

Gonna take more than a shot to get this poison out of me

And I got all the symptoms, count 'em one, two, three

First you need (That's what you get for falling in love)

Then you bleed (You get a little and it's never enough)

And then you're on your knees

(That's what you get for falling in love)

Now this boy's addicted 'cause your kiss is the drug

Oh, oh, oh, your love is like bad medicine

Bad medicine is what I need

Oh, oh, oh, shake it up, just like bad medicine

There ain't no doctor that can cure my disease

Bad, bad medicine

I don't need no needle to be giving me a thrill

And I don't need no anesthesia or a nurse to bring a pill

I got a dirty down addiction that doesn't leave a track

I got a jones for your affection like a monkey on my back

There ain't no paramedic gonna save this heart attack

When you need

(That's what you get for falling in love)

Then you bleed

(You get a little and it's never enough)

And then you're on your knees

(That's what you get for falling in love)

Now this boy's addicted 'cause your kiss is the drug

Oh, oh, oh, your love is like bad medicine

Bad medicine is what I need

Oh, oh, oh, shake it up, just like bad medicine

So let's play doctor, baby, cure my disease

Bad, bad medicine

Is what I want

Bad, bad medicine

Is what I need

I need a respirator 'cause I'm running out of breath

For you're an all night generator wrapped in stockings and a dress

When you find your medicine, you take what you can get

'Cause if there's something better, baby

Well, they haven't found it yet

Oh, oh, oh, your love is like bad medicine

Bad medicine is what I need

Oh, oh, oh, shake it up, just like bad medicine

There ain't no doctor that can cure my disease

Your love, bad medicine

Bad medicine is what I need

Oh, oh, oh, shake it up, just like bad medicine

Your love's the potion that can cure my disease

Bad, bad medicine

Is what I want

Bad, bad medicine

Oh, baby, oh, baby

(Bad, bad medicine) I gotta do, I gotta

I gotta do, I gotta

I gotta, I gotta

I gotta do it again

Wait a minute, wait a minute, hold on

I'm not done, one more time, with feel

Come on, one for that, help me up, now

Your love is like bad medicine

Bad medicine is what I need

Oh, oh, oh, shake it up, just like bad medicine

You got the potion that can cure my disease

Your love, bad medicine

Your kiss is what I need

Your love, bad medicine
