"Bad" is a deleted song that was cut from the 1986 film adaptation of Little Shop of Horrors. It would have featured Audrey II gloating about being bad during his final confrontation with Seymour. The song was replaced by "Bad Like Me", which in turn was replaced by "Mean Green Mother From Outer Space".
The original demo was performed by the song's lyricist, Howard Ashman. A version performed by Ron Taylor was included as a bonus track in the 2003 Broadway cast recording.
Lyrics[]
I used to hear the people talk about
That old King Kong
They used to say he was the meanest
But them folks was wrong
He climbed the Empire State
The building ain't that big
Shoot, I could climb in half the time,
But climbing ain't my gig
I'm just bad
(Bad!)
I'm real bad
(Bad!)
I'm bad
You know Godzilla was a monster
He was mighty mean
But even I had to respect him
'Cause the boy was green
But when he said to me
"Hey, Audrey, you ain't all that tough"
I had to show that leapin' lizard
I was tough enough
He said "Gad!"
(Gad!)
"Don't get mad
(Mad!)
Boy you're bad"
That's right, I'm bad
(Bad!)
Bad
(Bad!)
So I ain't worried 'bout
Your biggest guns
I'm just too bad
(Bad!)
Bad
(Bad!)
I'm ten feet tall
And weigh at least two tons
I'm extra bad
(Bad!)
Bad
(Bad!)
Go on and bitch and whine and wail and curse
Too bad I'm bad
(Bad!)
Bad
(Bad!)
And if you mess with me, I'll just get worse
One day I met the Bride of Frankenstein,
(So much for her)
Just one encounter and she called me
Mister Audrey, Sir
So it's a cinch no puny body of a botanist
Is gonna be a half a match for me
When I get pissed
Got it, Dad?
(Dad!)
You been had
(Had!)
Oh, I'm bad
So come and get me, kid,
I dare you, try and make your kill
I'll make you sorry you was messin'
With my chlorophyll
I hope you gettin' close to ready now
To end this fuss
These foolish efforts to undo me
Is so tedious
See all your methods are so corny
And so childish and so undergrad
They just an exercise in stupid
Why not face it, Seymour?
I am bad
