Lyrics

INTRO
Got a reputation...

VERSE 1
I been accused of being easy
Cos of the way I dress
Cos of the things I say
They go around now
Say that I?m a bad girl
Got a reputation
Dumb blonde, easy lay
Got a reputation
That?s what all the people say

BRIDGE
But now you?re coming on to me
You?re makin? sure your mates can see
Tryin? to move me with somebody else?s pick up lines
You act as though you own me
But you don?t even know me
Thought I was a sure thing
Though you?d take me home tonight

CHORUS
Got a little bit of reputation
But it?s only just a fabrication
Don?t you treat it as an invitation
If you want some you gotta give me some respect

This girl?s got a reputation
Now written all across the nation
Need somebody with a good vibration
I?m living down my bad reputation

VERSE 2
Go on and tell your friends what you always say
Tell?em we did it in every single way
Tell everybody what they already think they know
Bad reputation, dumb blonde, they are sure
Bad reputation, and it only goes to show

BRIDGE
And now you?re coming on to me
You?re makin? sure your mates can see
You?re tryin? to move me with somebody else?s pick up lines
You act as though you own me
But you don?t even know me
Thought I was a sure thing
Though you?d take me home tonight

CHORUS
Got a little bit of reputation?

MIDLE-8
Deep down I feel it´s such a disgrace
Makes me wonder what to do
Hurts me, makes me lose my faith
The picture you paint is untrue

CHORUS
Got a little bit of reputation?
