[Intro]
I can't believe I let this happen to me
It always ends up not good
That's why I know this can't be good

[Verse 1]
Open my eyes, first thing I see
Your lovely smile smiling at me
Kiss my forehead, up out of bed
Off to start your day, here in bed I stay
Thinking 'bout last night, replaying in my mind
When you touch me there
Ooh, it feels so right
Then interscinds
What am I doin'?
Get up out of bed
To myself thinkin'

[Chorus]
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be what...oh...
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be what...oh...
This can't be good
Ooh...

[Verse 2]
What's going on? What's happening to me?
Promised myself I would never let this be
Never again (Never again)
Never that way (Never that way)
Cut me so deep that I haven't been the same
What I feel right now, I felt before
When I hear your name and my feelings are floored
I'll fight it if I can, but I don't know if I should
The one thing I know, this can't be good, babe

[Chorus]
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be what...oh...
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be what...oh...
This can't be good

[Bridge]
Oh, I think I'm falling in love again (in love again)
Told myself I never would (Told myself I never would)
I think I'm falling in love again (in love again)
This cannot be good (Oh, this cannot be good, ooh)

[Chorus]
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be what...oh...
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be what...oh...
This can't be good
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be what...oh...
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be good (This can't be good)
This can't be what...oh...
This can't be good

[Outro]
This can't be good
No, this can't be good
No, this can't be good
No, this can't be good

Janet Jackson

Janet Damita Jo Jackson is an iconic R&B/pop artist who has sold over 100 million records worldwide and has amassed a number of awards in her illustrious music career.

Born in Gary, Indiana on May 16, 1966, Janet is the youngest of the Jackson family, who rose to prominence a few years after her birth when they signed with Motown Records. Janet joined the family business when she appeared on The Jacksons variety show in 1976, leading to her role as Penny Gordon in Season 5 of the CBS sitcom Good Times. She released two overlooked albums in the early 1980s—Janet Jackson (1982) and Dream Street (1984)—and continued to act during this time, appearing in Diff'rent Strokes and Fame.

The legend of Janet was created after she connected with the legendary Minneapolis production duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis to work on her seminal third album, Control. Control and her following album, 1989’s Rhythm Nation 1814, featured several #1 pop hits and made her a worldwide superstar. The trio would go on work on Janet’s subsequent hit albums, including janet., The Velvet Rope, as well as her 2015 comeback album, Unbreakable.
