[Verse 1]
You make it rhyme, but it doesn't
And when you cry, you really mean it
Don't you?
When I read through the lines
All I see is bad poetry

[Chorus]
It's bad poetry
It's bad poetry
It's bad poetry
It's bad, bad

[Verse 2]
You're taking course of literature francaise
And way too often you drop a name like Verlaine
And all the legends that you like they don't pretend
As much as you try

[Chorus]
It's bad poetry
It's bad poetry
It's bad poetry
It's bad, bad

[Bridge]
Amour amour
Sans toi je ne suis rien
Ton absence me hante
Du soir jusqu' au matin
Car le son de ta voix
A envahi mon coeur
Si doux, si delicat
Amour, sans toi je meurs
[Chorus]
It's bad poetry
It's bad poetry
It's bad poetry
It's bad, bad
