Have you met the girl from New York City?
Don't you think she's kind of wonderful?
The grass ain't always green where the girls are pretty
Can you see her through a kaleidoscope?

She could be a bad idea, bad idea
You don't want a bad idea, bad idea, no

Try to lay my luck on calling her baby
Thought of her love every passing day
But a lady never flirts with strangers
And I don't wanna be left in the gray

She could be a bad idea, bad idea
I don't want a bad idea, bad idea, no

Find her in the sky
She caused the tears you cry
What's it gonna take to convince you I'm okay?

She could be a bad idea, bad idea
You don't want a bad idea, bad idea, no

Oh, [?] bad if I'm enjoying the shade
Might as well give up 'cause I can't take no more delay
Looking high and low, but I gave it all away
And [?], no solutions
And you never told a lie, all I wanted the truth
But the world never stops to breathe

Find her in the sky
She caused the tears you cry
What's it gonna take to convince you I'm okay?

She could be a bad idea, bad idea
(Find her in the sky)
And I don't want a bad idea, bad idea, no
(She caused the tears you cry)

She could be a bad idea, bad idea
What's it gonna take to convince you I'm okay?
