Good Girls Go Bad Lyrics

[Intro: Gabe Saporta]
I make them good girls go bad
I make them good girls go
Good girls go bad
Good girls go bad


[Verse 1: Gabe Saporta]
I know your type (Your type)
You're daddy's little girl

Just take a bite (One bite)
Let me shake up your world
'Cause just one night couldn't be so wrong
I'm gonna make you lose control

[Pre-Chorus: Gabe Saporta]
She was so shy
'Til I drove her wild

[Chorus: Gabe Saporta]
I make them good girls go bad
I make them good girls go bad
You were hangin' in the corner with your five best friends
You heard that I was trouble, but you couldn't resist
I make them good girls go bad
I make them good girls go
[Post-Chorus: Gabe Saporta]
Good girls go bad, bad, bad
Good girls go bad (Bad, bad, bad)
Good girls go

[Verse 2: Leighton Meester]
I know your type (Your type)
Boy, you're dangerous
Yeah, you're that guy (That guy)
I'd be stupid to trust
But just one night couldn't be so wrong
You make me wanna lose control

[Pre-Chorus: Gabe Saporta]
She was so shy
'Til I drove her wild

[Chorus: Gabe Saporta, Leighton Meester]
I make them good girls go bad
I make them good girls go bad
I was hangin' in the corner with my five best friends
I heard that you were trouble, but I couldn't resist

I make them good girls go bad
I make them good girls go

[Post-Chorus: Gabe Saporta]
Good girls go bad, bad, bad
Good girls go bad (Bad, bad, bad)
Good girls go bad
[Bridge: Gabe Saporta, Leighton Meester]
Oh, she got a way with the boys in the place
Treat 'em like they don't stand a chance
And he got a way with the girls in the back
Actin' like they too hot to dance

Yeah, she got a way with the boys in the place
Treat 'em like they don't stand a chance
And he got a way with the girls in the back
Actin' like they too hot to dance


[Breakdown: Both, Gabe Saporta, Leighton Meester]
I make them good girls go bad
I make them good girls go
Them good girls go bad, yeah
(Good girls go bad)

[Chorus: Gabe Saporta, Leighton Meester]
I was hangin' in the corner with my five best friends
I heard that you were trouble, but I couldn't resist

I make them good girls go bad
I make them good girls go bad
I make them good girls go

[Post-Chorus: Gabe Saporta]
Good girls go bad, bad, bad
Good girls go bad (Bad, bad, bad)
Good girls go

What did Cobra Starship say about "Good Girls Go Bad"?
Genius Answer

In an interview with MTV in 2009, Cobra Starship frontman Gabe Saporta discussed how the collabaration with Leighton Meester came to be:

A couple months ago, I heard a rumor that Leighton was working on a record, and I went to sleep that night dreaming of what it would be like to do a song with her. Next morning (afternoon, actually) I wake up to find out my dreams are coming true! Some people made phone calls to some other people, then, shazam! I’m on a plane to LA to record with my boo. Leighton is already quite adept at portraying a princess with a nasty side – now she’s just gotta sing about it. If all the world’s a stage, we should all be so lucky to play Gossip Girl characters."
