Sugarhill Gang
Bad News (Don’t Bother Me)
[Chorus: Female trio]
Bad news, don't bother me
Bad news, just let me be
Bad news, don't bother me

Bad news, don't bother me
Bad news, just let me be
Bad news, don't bother me

[Verse 1: Craig Derry]
Take a look into your heart
It's never too late to make a change in things
When you see it going round
Don't expect someone to be you, play your part
You've got your own thing to do being you
You never know what you can do
Life expects you to go through
Don't cry
Don't cry

[Verse 2]
What do you get from taking chances all your life
But bits and broken dreams, a broken heart
All kinds of situations you will run into
But you can cope with them if you want to
You never know what you can do
Life expects you to go through
Don't cry
Don't cry
[Chorus]
Bad news, don't bother me, no no
(Don't you bother me)
Bad news, just let me be, yeah
(Just let me be)
Bad news, don't bother me, no no

I'm not looking for a broken heart
I'm not looking for a broken heart

Bad news, don't bother me, no no
(Don't you bother me)
Bad news, just let me be, yeah
(Just let me be)
Bad news, don't bother me, no

[Verse 3]
Take a look into your heart
It's never too late to make a change in things
When you see it going round
Don't expect someone to be you, play your part
You've got your own thing to do being you
You never know what you can do
Life expects you to go through
Don't cry
Don't cry
[Chorus]
Bad news, don't bother me, no no
(Don't you bother me)
Bad news, just let me be, yeah
(Just let me be)
Bad news, don't bother me, no
(Don't you bother me)
Bad news, just let me be
(Just let me be)
Bad news, don't bother me, no
(Don't you bother me)
Bad news, just let me be, yeah
(Just let me be)
Bad news, don't bother me, no
(Don't you bother me)
Bad news, just let me be
(Just let me be)
Bad news, don't bother me
(Don't you bother me)
Bad news, just let me be

Never too late
(To make a change)
Never too late

Never too late
('Cause you can change)
Never too late
[Verse 4]
What do you get from taking chances all your life
But bits and broken dreams, a broken heart
All kinds of situations you will run into
But you can cope with them if you want to
You never know what you can do
Life expects you to go through
Don't cry
Don't cry

[Chorus]
Bad news, don't bother me, no
Bad news, just let me be, yeah
(Won't you let me be)
Bad news, don't bother me, no
(No, I'm not looking for a broken heart)
Bad news, just let me be
(No)
Bad news, don't bother me
(Hey)
Bad news, just let me be
(Oh, won't you let me be)
Bad news, don't bother me
Bad news, just let me be

Take a look into your heart
(Take a look)
It ain't never too late to change
There's more to life than things
Never too late
Never too late
Never too late
Never too late
Never too late (Bad news)
Never too late
Never too late
Never too late (Oh, I can't make it on my own)
Never too late
Never too late (Take a look into your heart)
Never too late
Never too late (Change your life for a start)
Never too late
It's never too late to make a change
'Cause you can change
Never too late
Never too late
In Jesus name
