"Bad Blood" is about the end of a friendship or romantic relationship. It discusses how even though things were once very good between two people, deep betrayal and a broken trust has caused a rift that may be too difficult to mend. The chorus suggests that the person the song is directed at may be feeling regretful, while the verses and pre-choruses point to persistent hurt and resentment that speaks to a much deeper grudge. The bridge emphasizes how even apologies are not enough to repair the damage that has been done. Read more on Last.fm.

[Verse 1: Lady Gaga & Akon]
I've had a little bit too much, much (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
All of the people start to rush (Start to rush by)
A dizzy twister dance
Can't find my drink, oh man
Where are my keys?
I lost my phone, phone (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus: Lady Gaga]
What's goin' on, on the floor?
I love this record, baby, but I can't see straight anymore
Keep it cool
What's the name of this club?
I can't remember, but it's alright, a-alright
[Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Just dance
Gonna be okay

[Verse 2: Lady Gaga & Akon]
Wish I could shut my playboy mouth (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
How'd I turn my shirt inside out? (Inside out, right)
Control your poison, babe
Roses have thorns, they say
And we're all gettin' hosed tonight (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus: Lady Gaga]
What's goin' on, on the floor?
I love this record, baby, but I can't see straight anymore

[Verse 3: Colby O'Donis]
When I come through on the dance floor, checking out that catalogue
Can't believe my eyes, so many women without a flaw
And I ain't gonna give it up
Steady, tryna pick it up, like a call
I'mma hit it, I'mma beat it up, latch onto it until tomorrow, yeah
Shorty, I can see that you got so much energy
The way you twirlin' up them hips 'round and 'round
And there is no reason at all why you can't leave here with me
In the meantime, stay, let me watch you break it down and
[Chorus: Lady Gaga & Akon]
Dance
Gonna be okay (Oh-oh)

Gonna be okay
Da-da-doo-doot-n, just dance (Ooh, yeah)
Spin that record, babe
Da-da-doo-doot-n, just dance (Oh)

(Incredible... amazing... music)
Wooo!
Let's go!
[Bridge: Lady Gaga & Akon]
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic, got my blueprint, it's symphonic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic, got my blueprint, electronic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic, got my blueprint, it's symphonic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic, got my blueprint, electronic
Go!
Use your muscle, carve it out, work it, hustle
(I got it, just stay close enough to get it on)
Don't slow!
Drive it, clean it, Lysol, bleed it
Spend the last dough (I got it) in your pock-o (I got it)
[Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Just dance
Gonna be okay
Da-da-doo-doot-n, just dance
Spin that record, babe
Da-da-doo-doot-n, just dance
