BAD STUFF ©Pat Flanakin
Music & Lyrics by Pat Flanakin


VERSE Well, papa they told me I've got the right stuff
They put a gun in my hands and shipped me out to the gulf
I don't give a damn about a line in the sand Just point me in the right direction and get out of my way
Man, I'm bad stuff - I'm bad stuff

VERSE Well, they taught me to kill with my own bare hands
They gave me an order, said to follow commands So don't ask me no questions, I can't tell you why
You either stand behind me, or you stand up and die
I'm bad stuff - Oh, I'm bad stuff

VERSE Oh my girlfriend told me if I come home dead She's not gonna lay down with me naked in bed
Well that's alright - don't get mad
If I don't make it back, they'll wrap me in a bag I'm bad stuff - Oh, I'm bad stuff

CHORUS I'm a hero in the eye of ev'ry boy and girl
Now here we got shootin' up the whole frickin' world
Don't ask me to stop - I'll tell you when I've had enough
I'm bad stuff

BREAK

VERSE Oh, papa they pinned a purple heart on my chest
Told me in the heat of battle that I was the best
I don't wanna leave here, I love this land
Papa, don't you worry 'bout me, this ain't no Vietnam
I'm bad stuff - Oh, I'm bad stuff

CHORUS

Oh bad stuff
