I ain’t got a fever 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
I got all the symptoms count ’em 1,2,3
First you need
(That’s what you get for falling in love)
Then you bleed
(You get a little but it’s never enough)
On your knees
(That’s what you get for falling in love)
And now this boy’s addicted
Cause your kiss is the drug
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
There ain’t no doctor that can
Cure my disease
Bad, bad medicine
Bad, bad medicine
I don’t need no needle
To be giving me a thrill
And I don’t need no anaesthesia
Or a nurse to bring a pill
I got a dirty down addiction
It doesn’t leave a track
I got a jone 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 but it’s never enough)
On your knees
(That’s what you get for falling in love)
Now I’m addicted and your kiss is the drug
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
So let’s play doctor, baby
Cure my disease
Bad, bad medicine
Bad, bad medicine
I need a respirator
Cause I’m running out of breath
You’re an all night generator
Wrapped is 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
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
There ain’t no doctor that can
Cure my disease
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
Your love’s the potion that
Can cure my disease
Bad, bad medicine
Bad, bad medicine
