'' the lyrics : shhh come closer ive got something for you to hear hey take it easy im not someone for you to fear misunderstood is what ive been haunted by my troubled past done some things id later regret stuck with a reputation that will always last i may have done wrong throughout my time may have crossed some people and crossed some lines im a bad seed deemed that way for what ive done im a bad seed yet it was all done out of fun refrain : im a bad seed ive done things ill never admit im a bad seed ive never known when to quit done lots of things to lose peoples trust done plenty of things at the time i thought was a must dont give me that look like im pulling your leg i know im being evasive and extremely vague im not trying to admit to anything specific just saying ive done things i thought were terrific refrain i may have done wrong throughout my time may have crossed some people or crossed some lines im a bad seed deemed that way for what ive done im a bad seed yet it was all done out of fun track 9 - calm before the storm the interview : bryan : well , this song made the adult contemporary chart .
