Lyrics
[Verse] I'm not here to spread your business I'm just here to keep things cool Oh, no you ain't got nothing to lose No, what you got to prove? Heaven and hell be damned If you're made to choose

[Pre-Chorus] Oh, it won't matter who's to blame or at fault Honey, just know I'll be there when you want

[Chorus] When you need a bad man A bad—mama, watch your mouth! They'll think twice about messing with you You'll need a bad man A bad—mama, call him out Evil is as evil do Better believe I'm in no mood

[Verse 2] Go on calling for your mother Good boy follows all the rules Oh, what you got to prove? When you're well beyond your use Nеver felt so much alive As I do whеn I'm here with you

[Chorus 2] When you need a bad man A bad—mama, watch your mouth! They'll think twice about messing with you You'll need a bad man A bad—mama, call him out Evil is as evil do Better believe I'm in no mood

[Bridge] Oh, you need a bad man Give you a bad man

[Chorus 3] When you need a bad man A bad—mama, watch your mouth! They'll think twice about messing with you You'll need a bad man... maybe A bad—go on, call him out Evil is as evil do Better believe I'm in no mood

Background
Sanchez was "high as shit" when he wrote this song. He may drink a little, but very rarely smokes, since he's the paranoid, introverted type. He decided to give it a try during the pandemic and said that during the verse section he's under the influence trying to imitate Michael Jackson.

Trivia

 * Sanchez plays an 8-string guitar on this track.
