Verse 1:
 F
Well Christmas time is the time to be good
                         C
But baby, I'm a bad bad kid
 C
A stocking full of kerosene, matches, and wood
                            F
'Cause baby, I'm a bad bad kid
   F
Government surveillance since I started to walk
                        Bb
Ain't no telling what I did
                         F
I like to think I'm just misunderstood
         C                      F
But you know I'm just a bad bad kid

Verse 2:
  F
Daddy told Momma last Christmas Eve
                            C
You know, we got a bad bad kid
  C
He's got a black leather jacket and a real mean streak
                             F
I guess he's just a bad bad kid
  F
He knocked off a Macy's and my uncle's antiques
                          Bb
Hocked him for forty-nine quid
                                   F
He's on a one-way ticket down a dead-end street
   C
'Cause Momma, he's a bad bad kid


Chorus:
  G                    C
I can't help it I was born like this
 G                       C
A permanent spot on the naughty list
 G                                C
I never get a present, Santa's scratchin' his head
 Eb                      C
How'd a little fella get so mislead?

  G                    C
I can't help it I was born like this

A permanent spot on the naughty list

I never get a present, Santa's scratchin' his head
 Eb                      C
How'd a little fella get so mislead?


Verse 3:
  F
In the downtown store on a silent night
                     C
Holding onto Momma's hand

In the toy department, people waitin' in line
                        F
Lookin' to meet the fat man
  F
Old Kringle felt a tingle runnin' up his spine
                           Bb
He saw me, then he run and hid
                               F
Santa heard his own name ended up on a list
        C                    F
It was written by a bad bad kid
           C                   F
You don't mess with a bad bad kid
           C                   F
You don't mess with a bad bad kid
