Bad to You Lyrics
Hello, Charlie (Ooh)
Ariana, Normani (Ooh)
Uh, let's go
[Verse 1: Normani]
Baby, I've been feedin' the addiction
Flyin' from there and back, felt like an acrobat
Brown eyed, so I fell into submission
Needed to catch myself, like what the hell?
[Pre-Chorus: Normani]
Now we pull your chain
Just to wake you up, wake you up
Push you 'til you break
Now you're steppin' up, steppin' up, ah, ah
[Chorus: Normani, Dua Lipa & Ariana Grande]
Why are you only good to me
When I'm bad to you?
Why are you only?
Why are you only good to me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
When I'm bad to you?
Why are you only?
Loving you and hating you is in, depending on the day
Tell me why are you only good to me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
When I'm bad to you?
Why are you only?
Stopped thinkin' like a victim
This time, I'll throw it back
Boy, can you handle that?
Got you trippin', gave you no attention
That's when I figured out what you're about
[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Now we pull your chain
Just to wake you up (Yeah), wake you up (Yeah)
Push you 'til you break
Now you're steppin' up, steppin' up, ah, ah
[Chorus: Ariana Grande, Dua Lipa & Nicki Minaj]
Why are you only good to me (Hey)
When I'm bad to you?
Why are you only?
Why are you only good to me (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
When I'm bad to you? (So bad)
Why are you only?
Loving you and hating you is in, depending on the day
Tell me why are you only good to me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
When I'm bad to you?
Why are you only?
[Verse 3: Nicki Minaj]
Mm, ayo
Why you only nice when I get bad, boy? Psha
Get back on your job like you employed, boy, psha
You know that I'm saucy, got that sauce, soy, psha
I ain't 'bout to stay up on this merry-go-round and round
'Cause we go 'round and 'round
But I don't want no clowns around me (Brrr)
I tell 'em, "Who is you cuffin'?"
I got 'em huffin' and puffin'
He keep on callin' me "baby"
Like I'm a bun in the oven
I said
Why are you only good to me (Oh yeah)
When I'm bad to you? (When I'm bad to you)
Why are you only?
Why are you only good to me (Oh, oh, eh)
When I'm bad to you? (When I'm bad to you)
Why are you only?
Loving you and hating you is in, depending on the day
Tell me why are you only good to me (So good, uh)
When I'm bad to you?
Why are you only?
About
“Bad to You” featuring Ariana Grande, Nicki Minaj, and Normani, is a song from the Charlie’s Angels Soundtrack, released in November 2019. It was originally intended to be a collaboration between Ariana Grande and Dua Lipa, however, Ariana tweeted that the plans for their link-up single was cancelled due to the release interfering with another single of Dua’s. On the song, the three artists separately “scold” their partners for how they treat the relationship, and at the same time display similar harsh tones back.
The song is the sixth collaboration between Ariana and Nicki, and the first collaboration Normani shares with either of the other two. However, Normani did play as an opening act for Ariana’s 2019 Sweetener World Tour.

A snippet of this track got leaked in 2018, but the feature artist was Dua Lipa. After being asked if it was the same song, Ariana said on Twitter:
it is ! i loved our version so much as well. the timing didn’t align with her project (which i’m so very excited for) but they really wanted it for the film so we gave it a new “cast”. mani and nicki both of course killed it. it would have been fun w all of us! but it’s divine.
