Bad Penny Lyrics by Tessa Barcelo

Bad Penny - Single

2023

[Verse 1]
I convinced myself it was one mistake
That you fucked up but it was okay
I convinced myself it would never happen again
Boy, was I wrong

And I convinced myself that you weren't so bad
And one poor choice shouldn’t make me mad
I convinced myself that you were the best I'd ever had
Boy, was I wrong

[Chorus]
Now I know I'm not the only one you hurt (no, I’m not the only)
And every time I think I heal, I burn (yeah, you burn me so badly)
And I keep thinking that I've counted all the ways you did me wrong, but no
‘Cause you show up again like a, like a, likе a bad penny

Like a, like a bad, likе a bad penny
Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny, ah
Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

[Verse 2]
I convinced myself that the fault was mine
And all those things you did were to make me shine
I convinced myself that you never ever crossed the line
Boy, was I wrong

[Chorus]
Now I know I'm not the only one you hurt (no, I'm not the only)
And every time I think I heal, I burn (yeah, you burn me so badly)
And I keep thinking that I've counted all the ways you did me wrong, but no
‘Cause you show up again like a, like a, like a bad penny

Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny
Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny, ah
Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

[Bridge]
And I should've known, should've known better when you told me you were scared
I should've known, should’ve known better when you were only sometimes there
I should’ve known, should've known better when you wouldn’t let me near
Oh, I, I should've known

[Chorus]
Now I know I'm not the only one you hurt (no, I'm not the only)
And every time I think I heal, I burn (yeah, you burn me so badly)
And I keep thinking that I’ve counted all the ways you did me wrong, but no
‘Cause you show up again like a, like a, like a bad penny

Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny
Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny, ah
Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny
Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny, ah
Like a, like a bad, like a bad penny
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
