I shoulda known that you were bad news

From the bad boy demeanor and the tattoos

'Cause most guys only want one thing

But I'm undecided,

Tryin' to figure out if that's you

Either way though,

I think you're worth the test drive

'Cause I know you're so much better

Than the next guy

And a little trouble only makes for a good time

So all the normal red flags be a good sign

Don't you come here thinking you're balling

Oh no, ain't down for it

You seem like trouble to me

I can tell by the way that you lean

And the way that you kiss your teeth

And you turn up so fresh and clean

Smells like trouble to me

Opposites attract, I guess this is that

Good girl, bad guy, what a perfect match

And if we fuck you gon' wanna pay back tithes

When we finish you gon' feel like you was baptized

See baby now you fiendin' for a test drive

'Cause you don't wanna lose your ride to the next guy

And baby trouble only makes for a good time

So all the normal red flags be a good sign

Don't you come here thinking you're balling

Oh no, ain't down for it

You seem like trouble to me

I can tell by the way that you lean

And the way that you kiss your teeth

And you turn up so fresh and clean

Smells like trouble to me

I got it bad for him in the worst way

Dear Lord, how'd I get in this positioning

Should've never got involved in the first place

Second place never get the recognition,

See what he doin' to me

Make me have to shout it out

Gotta hold on me and that's without a doubt

So clear now that he's trouble starter

But I ain't a saint neither

And these ain't no still waters

Just 'cause all the girls are falling at your feet

Don't mean no thing to me

'Til you show me where it's at

Smells like trouble to me

Just 'cause all the girls are falling at your feet

Don't mean no thing to me

'Til you show me where it's at

Smells like trouble to me

I shoulda known that you were bad news

Knew you were bad news

From the bad boy demeanor and the tattoos

All of the tattoos

I shoulda known that you were bad news

Knew you were bad news

But I'm undecided,

Tryin' to figure out if that's you

You're trouble to me

Don't you come here thinking you're balling

Oh no, ain't down for it

You seem like trouble to me

I can tell by the way that you lean

And the way that you kiss your teeth

And you turn up so fresh and clean

Smells like trouble to me
