Bareilles, Sara - Bad Idea Lyrics
It's a bad idea, me and you
It's a bad idea, me and you
I've never known anything so true
It's a terrible idea, me and you
You have a husband
You're my doctor
You've got a baby coming
It's a bad idea, me and you
Let's just keep kissing til we come to
Heart, stop racing
Let's face it, making mistakes like this will make worse what was already pretty bad
Mind, stop running
It's time we just let this thing go
It's a bad idea, me and you
It's a bad idea, me and you
Hold me close while I think this through
(Um, um, yeah)
Yeah, it's a very poor idea, me and you
I got a wife
I got a husband
I'm your doctor
My dumb baby's coming
It's a bad idea, me and you
Maybe one more kiss will make us come to
Heart, stop racing
Let's face it, making mistakes like this
will make worse what was already pretty bad
Mind, stop running
It's time we just let this thing go
It was a pretty good bad idea, wasn't it though?
It's not right for me
It's the only thing I've ever done
What if I never see myself ever be anything more
than what I've already become?
I need a bad idea
I need a bad idea
I need a bad idea
I need a bad idea
Just one
Heart, keep racing
Let's make mistakes
Let us say "so what?" and make worse what was already pretty bad
This secret is safe
No reason to throw it away when there's love to be had
Hold me tight as I tell myself that you might make sense
And make good what has been just so bad
Let's see this through
It's a pretty good bad idea
Me and you

I feel like if Lin Manuel and Sara collabed the masterpiece would be LITERAL PERFECTION.
Just heard this song few days ago and I can't really believe that it's a 3 years ago song.. Everything is just perfect...
Make worse what is already bad.. Woah😂😂😂😂😂
Its really a pretty bad idea
6/4 hemiola. Cool shit.
Who was this about? Lol... 😂
How did I go from reading Red Hood fanfiction to listening to a song from The Waitress?
Beautiful voice Sara
I love that one run 🙏🙏
This sounds so much better than the Broadway's cast version...
Sara and Jason seem to have decent vocal chemistry!
I got to see them perform together in Waitress last year. It was unreal!
Kelly Ann That’s cool
messed up.
i love this song! jason and you are great singers ans together it is wonderful to listen both of your voices on the same song
3/2 time signature messes with my brain
This song is so catchy!! And their voices harmonize so greatly 😍
How is the song odd it feels natural for a musical and a performance piece. :/
Also Jason Mraz actually doing the musical im done.
So this is why everyone saw the casting announcement coming xD
http://www.broadway.com/buzz/189817/grammy-winner-jason-mraz-to-make-broadway-debut-in-waitress/
does she make music anymore?
come to singapore again
omg, most of these comments were from 1 year ago, please make more songs sara
Love the song, love the show, love the artist.
1 year ago
now posts one year WTF lol
i miss sara bareilles so much
wow I'm crying, I love this as much as the Broadway cast version
you are a ixprackn to me
I remember losing my mind when I learned this two sang this LIKE EARGASMS FOR DAYSSSSSSSS
Saw Sara on Broadway -- it was AMAZING. She's a powerhouse as a singer AND an actress.
Dios!!me encanta como cantas me gustaría que sacaras otra canción te extraño
I love love love this...
Wish this song wasn't about cheating.
Angelisa Hassan I felt bad Jenna and Potmatter didn’t end up together. But what we got was better than a downer ending
WHYY did you stop music so long ago i might cry...
ChocolateHeart Girl becuase of Waitress❤️
She's gonna release an album of her own this year.
GET READY TO CRY PEOPLE
TheiMoggy WAIT IS THIS REAL!!!!
Were is she?
where did she go?
Make more songs 😭
wait... why did she stop uploading ?
perfect combination.
Sara Bareilles; I apologize for not subscribing sooner. I guess this is my Winter Song.
What happens to her singing
BBY COME TO PERÚ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Geral dine Yesssss
ok, this is the best cheating song i've ever heard😂😂😂
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I love the touch of satire
"Say no to this" tho
Can't say no tho that
& yet when maroon 5 makes a song about it ("feelings") no one says a thing :/
Unlike "Say No to This", you kind of root for Jenna and Dr. Pomatter.
tbh she was a one hit wonder
I am a huge fan from Brazil !! I dream of seeing you sing live
i've been waiting for this for 8 years now.
One of my favorite songs with two of my favorite people! 😍
Just posted a video of me singing Gravity. Check it out
155 people apparently thought this was a good idea.
I want Sara to be my sister, like seriously. No, I wanna BE Sara.
YOU GO BABY GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That blending at 2:00 : chills.
Collab dream come true. ^___^ please tour together!
perfecttttttt
My love for Sara has grown 1000x after hearing the score to this musical
Same here
The first time I listened to this song I didn't know Jason Mraz sang the male part....I was just in awe of Sara's amazing lower range....
+ChelleIsRandom 1:23 "I got a husband" part. First I thought it was Jazon singing. lol
HAHAHAH
This beat is so odd
+Ushma Asher I think it's because it's for a musical. idk lol But it grows. ahahaha
+christian earl sabijon Haha ok
It sounds different on stage.
Prob cause it's in 6/4 time
Is that repeating bass aint it?
ok woops ILL HAVE YOU KNOW I DO NOT ENCOURAGE ADULTERY bUT I am obsessed with this song aaaaahhh
I don't encourage marriage.
is that
is that a thomas sanders reference due to the audltery
also mood
where can i get the instrumentals for this
I just heard this song cause I'm late but I LOVE this
This song makes me dance around in my bathroom at two AM... until my roommate walked in, that is.
But it was a pretty good bad idea, wasn't it though?
Moira VD
Moira VD xD
@cat v OMG
That was brilliant XD
I was really looking forward to this combination, and it's a beautiful sounding song, but the meaning is absolutely horrible :(
It's hard to enjoy it when the lyrics are about cheating
Planetarian Prince I get that, but keep in mind the context of the song. Jenna’s husband is abusive, and the doctor’s wife is hardly around because of her career. I’m not justifying the cheating, but I will say that they both acknowledge that what they’re doing is wrong, but they also acknowledge that they’re not happy in their current relationships. Sara is such a wonderful writer if she can make a song about cheating so enjoyable.
this is a amazing song!
Anybody wanna do a duet cover with me? Obsessed with this songggg
ayanna Denns
National Monologue Competition B924D9F7 839F 40E7 A5DD 7149D867E20E
This may be the first song by Sara that I'm conflicted about lyrically...ah well, sounds too freaking awesome! :-D
love how its in 6/8
Their first duet and they sing about cheating? Why?. :/
It's from a musical; the song goes with the story.
Two of the best voices ever! And Sara wrote that song. Multitalented has a name :-)
It's a bad idea to drop your phone in the toliet argh! :( buh bye apple 5 fuck!
annoying, boring,uncreative,unmemorable
this is a messed up song.....
Which Musical was it made for? i wanna look for it
Waitress
I LOVE NEW SHIT W/ JASON MARAZ
I absolutely love their voices together
sara's and Jason's voices blend and match like fire on coal BURNING BRIGHT it's so amazing.
It's awesore Wassut, file tasteful What's your opinion about
Alright song, but the beat didn't match right with their voices.
Sara Bareilles!!!!
I got more excited about the Troye Sivan ad than this song
+TheWaviieNinqa Bye!
Yes. Love these two singers.
Kind of want to see this song adapted as a romcom movie now :P
It's from a musical based on a rom com
@marissa maynard That makes an absurd amount of sense :)
Really good harmony in here.
Great rhythm, tight arrangement ! Bad message,.but otherwise,.. a great song !
topangelmusic it's part of a musical so it's just part of the show if you didn't know lol.
Sara Bareilles and Jason Mraz in a song together? My 2008 dream come true.
I can't concentrate on song. rhythm is very odd. even I know songwriter's intention but it's really bad idea.
The musical version is much better to me
Take a listen to the actual musical's version.
It works much better in the musical, Waitress, which Sara wrote the music for. It's much different than typical music you'd hear on the radio, and I personally prefer the musical version but that might be because I frikken love musicals
She was the writer. Sara wrote it
@Hey I’m Sam yes 😁
That sucked... The video was stuck on one picture the whole song...
+Evilwhiteclownpunk Because it's an audio.
Why are they singing about cheating? This is so wrong
+Blake Garrett In the movie the play is based off of, the female lead finds out she's pregnant with her abusive partners child and she's afraid that she's not going to ever be able to leave him. She ends up having an affair with her doctor because he treats her nicely and does care for her. The affair is one of the reasons that gives her strength to leave the abusive relationship that she's in. She breaks it off with the doctor in the end and divorces her husband.
+Blake Garrett The doctor though is cheating on his wife that loves him a lot, but is busy going through medical school. He has no excuse for cheating.
Most all of Mozart operas have that one "cheating song" or - because he tends to make it sound so pretty - "the forbidden love song". Welcome to musical theater where you will find songs about... pretty much most everything. And this topic tends to be one that's actually quite common. But also the bigger reason it's the "song" part is because it's a big plot point in the musical/storyline. That's usually a rule of musical theater. I think the song is upbeat, but also a little frazzled with "heart racing" and so on. Remember, this is from the point of the characters. Yeah... I'm a musical theater nerd.
Chicksue cause it was a bad idea wasnt it though?
Chicksue well the character of Jenna is trapped in a bad abusive marriage. This affair let's her feel love and passion again this one of the rare times it's okay
emmadulmolla
They should do an album collab <3
:D👌👌😍😍💓💓💓💓💓
a sweet forbidden song
Hope there's a video for this and receive so much views. They deserve.
this is a pretty good song. :) love it!
