Story Behind The Song
I saw a trailer for Jason Bateman's film, "Bad Words". I liked the title so much I wrote a relationship song based on it.

Lyrics
You're A Bad Word
Emmanuel Lawrence
Copyright 2014
VERSE 1
There's so much fussing
All about cussing
Those words can pierce through and through
Though cussing is wrong
It never hurt me as long
It never hurt me like you do
CHORUS
Cause you're a bad word
(You're a bad word, bad word)
You're a bad taste in my mouth
Yeah, you're a bad word (bad word)
When I say your name
I want to spit it out
Yeah, you're a bad word
VERSE 2
Mouthwash and mints
Still leave a hint
The smell your name leaves behind
And if that wasn't rough
And if that wasn't enough
I've got to wash you out of my mind
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE 3
Time would tell
Time worked its spell
Time found a way to pull me through
Distance brought me out
Distance was the route
Distance was what I needed from you
REPEAT CHORUS & OUTRO
