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 madicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad madicine
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 anesthesia
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 madicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad madicine
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 thay haven’t found it yet

Your love is like bad madicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad madicine
There ain’t no doctor that can
Cure my disease

Your love is like bad madicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad madicine
Your love’s the potion that
Can cure my disease

Bad, bad medicine
Bad, bad medicine
