ATEEZ “BAD” Lyrics

Hangul

Your name stuck on my tongue
No words but say too much
Every time I wanna go and get gone
You stop me with one touch
어지러워 너의 그 미소
눈이 멀어, stuck in your halo
빠져버려 난 이제 포로
I feel like if we go Latina like, like
Curves along her body
Got the people calling it Photoshop
She’ll be going places
Wake up in Vegas, nah, she don’t stop
홀렸네 막 아득해
나도 몰라 어떡해
네게 빠져 허우적대
허우적대 허우적대

She’s so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad (Ooh, wee)
She’s so bad (Chk-chk-chk-cha), ayy (Run it all night solo)
Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad (Ooh, wee)
She’s so bad (Chk-cha, chk-cha), yeah (Run it all night solo)

Tú me tienes loco
Toda la noche, loco contigo
Wild when you tease, tan lento
Ritmo peligroso
짜릿해서 난 brr
떨려 넌 향기로운 amiga
Bella figura, got that peso
미쳐버려, olé, mi Dios, so bad
She way too fine for the room
But you know that I’m a real VIP member
I don’t even smoke, I don’t, ooh
But she rollin so classic like a Cohiba Cuban
Her voice in my head, that’s all I wanna hear
Got me writing poems, in my zone, Shakespeare
Caught in her web, she a spidey
청양고추 vibe, she spicy (Fuego)

She’s so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad (Ooh, wee)
She’s so bad (Chk-chk-chk-cha), ayy (Run it all night solo)
Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad (Ooh, wee)
She’s so bad (Chk-cha, chk-cha), yeah (Run it all night solo)

Yeah, she’s so used to all ’em flashes, Mona Lisa (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
The way she’s dancing looking red, hot señorita (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
난 너만 바래 내가 찾던 euphoria (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
너에게 바치리 나의 la victoria (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)

She’s so bad
She’s so bad
She’s so bad e-every day
Way she’s moving up the tempo
Switching up the pace
Love the way she’s goin’ loco

(Yo)
(Yo) I feel like if we go Latina like, like
(Yo)
(Yo)

Translation

Your name stuck on my tongue
No words but say too much
Every time I wanna go and get gone
You stop me with one touch
My head is spinning from that smile of yours
I’m blinded, stuck in your halo
I’ve completely fallen, I’m your prisoner now
I feel like if we go Latina like, like
Curves along her body
Got the people calling it Photoshop
She’ll be going places
Wake up in Vegas, nah, she don’t stop
I’m totally bewitched, everything is growing faint
I don’t even know what to do anymore
Fallen deep for you, I’m flailing around
Flailing around, helplessly flailing around

She’s so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad (Ooh, wee)
She’s so bad (Chk-chk-chk-cha), ayy (Run it all night solo)
Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad (Ooh, wee)
She’s so bad (Chk-cha, chk-cha), yeah (Run it all night solo)

(Spanish) You drive me crazy
(Spanish) All night long, crazy for you
Wild when you tease, (Spanish) so slowly
(Spanish) Dangerous rhythm
It gives me such a thrill, I go brr
I’m trembling, you are my fragrant friend (amiga)
(Spanish) Beautiful figure, got that peso
I’m losing my mind, (Spanish) olé, my God, so bad
She way too fine for the room
But you know that I’m a real VIP member
I don’t even smoke, I don’t, ooh
But she rollin so classic like a Cohiba Cuban
Her voice in my head, that’s all I wanna hear
Got me writing poems, in my zone, Shakespeare
Caught in her web, she a spidey
A Cheongyang chili pepper vibe, she spicy (Spanish: Fire)

She’s so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad (Ooh, wee)
She’s so bad (Chk-chk-chk-cha), ayy (Run it all night solo)
Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad (Ooh, wee)
She’s so bad (Chk-cha, chk-cha), yeah (Run it all night solo)

Yeah, she’s so used to all ’em flashes, Mona Lisa (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
The way she’s dancing looking red, hot señorita (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
You’re the only one I want, the euphoria I’ve been searching for (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
To you, I will dedicate my victory (la victoria) (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)

She’s so bad
She’s so bad
She’s so bad e-every day
Way she’s moving up the tempo
Switching up the pace
Love the way she’s goin’ loco

(Yo)
(Yo) I feel like if we go Latina like, like

ATEEZ “BAD” Meaning

ATEEZ’s “BAD” is a dark and captivating song about irresistible attraction and the loss of control that comes with intense desire. The track portrays a relationship where the narrator is fully aware of the danger and emotional risk involved, yet remains unable to resist the powerful pull of the other person.

A central theme of the song is temptation. The lyrics describe someone whose presence is both alluring and overwhelming, creating an almost hypnotic effect on the narrator. Even when they attempt to walk away, they find themselves drawn back, emphasizing the addictive nature of the connection.

The song also explores the conflict between desire and self-control. Throughout the track, the narrator recognizes that this attraction may not be healthy, yet willingly surrenders to it. This emotional tension creates a sense of vulnerability, as they become trapped in a cycle of fascination and longing.

Many listeners also interpret the title “BAD” as a double entendre, referring both to the love interest’s dangerous charm and their irresistible appeal. Combined with the song’s sleek production and intense atmosphere, the title reinforces the idea of being captivated by someone who is impossible to ignore.

Ultimately, “BAD” is a song about obsession, temptation, and surrendering to powerful emotions. Through its dramatic lyrics and magnetic energy, ATEEZ captures the thrill and danger of being drawn toward someone who feels both intoxicating and impossible to escape.
