Bad Word For A Good Thing

Down on Lover's Lane, about ten years ago
 I was looking for a thing I didn't know
 I asked a friend about it, he said, "You must be strained"
 You say you know about it, but by a different name
 It's just a bad (bad) word (word)
 For a good (good) thing
 It's just a bad (bad) word (word)
 For a good (good) thing
 For a good, good thing
 Saw the fortune teller up on Fourth and Vine
 She wouldn't sell me the love potion number nine
 Went to see the gypsy, had my fortune read
 She looked into her crystal ball and this is what she said
 I see a bad (bad) word (word)
 For a good (good) thing
 I see a bad (bad) word (word)
 For a good (good) thing
 For a good, good thing
 Climb the highest mountain, walk the wildest street
 Won't somebody tell me? Can't somebody see?
 Go into the valley, go into the swamp
 Won't somebody tell me where I can get me some?
 I need a bad (bad) word (word)
 For a good (good) thing
 I need a bad (bad) word (word)
 For a good (good) thing
 For a good, good thing (bad, bad word)
 For a good thing, baby (bad, bad word)
 For a good thing, yeah (bad, bad word)
 For a good thing, baby (bad, bad word)
 For a good thing, yeah (bad, bad word)
 For a good thing, baby (bad, bad word)
 For a good thing, yeah (bad, bad word)
 For a good thing, baby (bad, bad word)
 Yeah
