Lyrics

[Verse 1]
An angel's smile is what you sell
You promised me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passion's a prison, you can't break free
[Verse 2]
Whoa, you're a loaded gun
Whoa, there's nowhere to run
No one can save me, the damage is done
[Verse 3]
Shot through the heart and you're to blame
You give love a bad name (Bad name)
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name (Bad name)
You give love a bad name
[Verse 4]
Paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A school boy's dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye
[Verse 5]
Whoa, you're a loaded gun
Whoa, there's nowhere to run
No one can save me, the damage is done
[Verse 6]
Shot through the heart and you're to blame
You give love a bad name (Bad name)
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name (Bad name)
You give love, yeah
[Verse 7]
Oh yeah, shot through the heart and you're to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name (Bad name)
Shot through the heart and you're to blame
You give love a bad name (Bad name)
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name (Bad name)
[Verse 8]
Shot through the heart and you're to blame
You give love a bad name
You give love (Yeah)
You give love a bad name
You give love (Ha, ha, ha)
You give love (Come on, yeah, I say)
You give love a bad name, I say
You give love a bad name
