Lyrics[]

[Intro]
Bad desire
(This is the test of the emergency broadcast system)
Leave me
Baby you are getting out of my heart
Leave me
Baby you're getting out
Bad
Bad desire
Oh oh oh

[Verse 1]
I'll wake up tomorrow without taking a little chance
I'll leave all my sorrows and send out an S.O.S.
If you can retreat girl, I can loose control
To be I believed your way, baby
You are too wrong

[Chorus]
Bad Desire
You know my heart on fire
Oh bad desire
Baby no
I don't want you, no
Oh oh oh

[Verse 2]
I don't need no diamond
I don't need and you cry
You have broken all my dreams
You can't change my mind

[Bridge]
Leave me
Baby you are getting out of my heart
Leave me
Baby you're getting out
