Where was the money when you needed it most?
You pick up the check and can't cover the cost
You tell her her blue eyes make your day
You wait for Sebastian's song to play
But she don't seem to care at all

You're standing in line just to hit the new show
It's eight bucks to buy a simple popcorn and Coke
After thirty minutes of waiting you find
They're all out of tickets for the night
And then you feel it's all your fault

Cause you had a Bad Date
You take her to town
And things just go wrong, can't figure it out
Beyond your control
They wreck your whole night
You're certain for now pigs really don't fly
You had a Bad Date
It's Saturday night
But it feels like a Monday deep down inside
You had a Bad Date
You had a Bad Date

Well you had a true guy rotten date
The point is we've all been in your place
I know how you feel but life goes on

You had a Bad Date
It's getting you down
You called her the wrong name in front of her mom
You saved all that dough
And blew it in one night
Her curfew's at twelve and you don't get there on time
You had a Bad Date
You stand on thin ice
She doesn't respond when you tell her good night
You had a Bad Date
Oh, what a date

Sometimes life just throws you a blank
And the whole thing turns out wrong
The night got really bad and you know
That you were feeling like this song
But life goes on, yeah

So where was the passion when you needed it most
No you and I
You pick up the pieces of relationships lost

Cause you had a Bad Date
You're making it sound
Like life can't go on cause you screwed up just now
I say that there's hope
You can't let one night
Mark you a failure for the rest of your life
You had a Bad Date
You've seen what's it's like
You know how it feels to be one more guy
Who had a Bad Date
You had a Bad Date

Had a Bad Date
Had a Bad Date
