Lyrics
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Oh, oh, oh, 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
And got all the symptoms
Count 'em, one, two, three
First I need
(That's what you get
For falling in love)
Then you bleed
(You get a little
But it's never enough)
Yeah, when 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
Oh, oh, oh, shake it up
Just like bad medicine
There ain't no doctor
That can cure my disease
Bad, bad medicine
Bad, bad medicine
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
That doesn't leave a track
I got a jones 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)
And when you're 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
Oh, oh, oh, 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
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
Oh, oh, oh
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Oh, oh, oh, shake it up
Just like bad medicine
There ain't no doctor
That can cure my disease
