bad guy
i'm not the bad guy in this
i'm not the bad guy no no no
i'm not the bad guy, and will not wear the black hat

i shake my head and stand and wonder
i really shouldn't have to explain
i don't know what's going on
anymore than you do
but i'm tired of being the one that's being blamed

i'm not the bad guy in this
i'm not the bad guy no no no
i'm not the bad guy, and will not wear the black hat
i'm not the bad guy in this
i'm not the bad guy no no no
and i never even did that

so i'm the source of all your suffering
could you have mistaken for someone else
even when your little fingerprints
start turning up all over it
you seem to suspect about everybody but yourself

i'm not the bad guy in this
i'm not the bad guy no no no
i'm not the bad guy, and will not wear the black hat
i'm not the bad guy in this
i'm not the bad guy no no no
and i never even did that

singing the same old song
talking about love gone wrong
playing at the same old game
point the finger and place the blame

(break)

even when your little fingerprints
start turning up all over it
you seem to suspect about everybody but yourself

see i'm not the bad guy in this
i'm not the bad guy no no no
i'm not the bad guy, and will not wear the black hat
i'm not the bad guy in this
i'm not the bad guy no no no
and i never even did that
