[Intro: Nick & All]
If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
Yeah, I like this

[Verse 1: Nick]
If you want it to be wild
Got to know just who to dial baby, that's me
If you really like it hot
Find someone who hits the spot honey, oh yes

[Pre-Chorus: Brian & AJ]
And if you want to get it done
Then you got to get the one
The one who's got it goin' on
If you want to make it last
Got to know just who to ask
Babe, he's got to be the best
Tonight it's me

[Chorus: Nick & All]
If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
If you really want it good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
Get it like it could be, would be
Yeah, like it should be
If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy

[Verse 2: Nick]
If you like it innovative
Better get someone creative honey, yes
And if you want it to be jamming
Got to get somebody slamming baby, oh yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Brian & AJ]
And if you want to get it done
Then you got to get the one
The one who's got it goin' on
Oh, if you want to make it last
Got to know just who to ask
Babe, he's got to be the best
Tonight it's me

[Chorus: Nick & All]
If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
If you really want it good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
Get it like it could be, would be
Yeah, like it should be
If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy

[Bridge: Nick & All]
Now listen
These are things your mama shouldn't know
These are things I really want to show
These are things I want to show you how
So, won't you let me show you right now?, ooh baby

[Pre-Chorus: Brian & AJ]
And if you want to get it done
Then you got to get the one
The one who's got it goin' on
Oh, if you want to make it last
Got to know just who to ask
Babe, he's got to be the best
That's me, my lady

[Chorus: Nick & All]
If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
If you really want it good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
Get it like it could be, would be
Yeah, like it should be
If you want it to be good girl
Get it like it should

[Outro: All]
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good
If you really want it good

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
