Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
There ain't no doctor that can
Cure my disease
Bad medicine

I ain't got a fever
Got a permanent disease
It'll take more than a doctor
To prescribe a remedy

I got lots of money
But it isn't what i need
Gonna take more than a shot
To get this poison out of me

I got all the symptoms
Count 'em 1, 2, 3

First you need
That's what you get for
Falling in love
Then you bleed
You get a little but it's
Never enough
And then you're on your knees
That's what you get for falling in love
And now this boy's addicted
Cause your kiss is the drug

Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
There ain't no doctor that can
Cure my disease

I don't need no needle
To be giving me a thrill
And I don't need no anesthesia
Or a nurse to bring a pill
I got a dirty down addiction
It doesn't leave a track
I got a jone for your affection
Like a monkey on my back

There ain't no paramedic
Gonna save this heart attack

When you need
That's what you get for falling
In love
Then you bleed
You get a little but it's
Never enough
On your knees
That's what you get for falling
In love
Now this boy's addicted and your
Kiss is the drug

Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
So let's play doctor
Baby, cure my disease

Bad, bad medicine (is what I want)
Bad, bad medicine (oh, it's what I need)

I need a respirator
'Cause I'm running out of breath
You're an all night generator
Wrapped in stockings and a dress
When you find your medicine
You take what you can get
'Cause if there's something better baby
Well, they haven't found it yet

Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
The ain't no doctor that
Can cure my disease

Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
Your love's the potion that
Can cure my disease

Bad, bad medicine

Bad, bad medicine
