Låttexter: Soundtrack Artists. Bad Guys.

Music: Paul Williams
Lyrics: Paul Williams
Book: Alan Parker
Premiere: 1976

We could've been anything we wanted to be
But don't it make your heart glad
That we decided, a fact we take pride in
We became the best at being bad

We could've been anything we wanted to be
With all the talent we had
No doubt about it, we whine and we pout it
We're the very best at being guys

We're rotten to the core

And my congratulations no one likes you any more

Bad guys, we're the very worst


Each of us contemptible, we're criticised and cursed

We made the big time, malicious and mad
We're the very best at being bad

We could've been anything we wanted to be
We took the easy way out
With little training, we mastered complaining
Manners seemed unnecessary
We're so rude, it's almost scary

We could've been anything that we wanted to be
With all the talent we had
With little practice, we made every black list
We're the very best at being bad
We're the very best at being bad
We're the very best at being bad
