Bad Habits

Lyrics

I got high, high, high baby in the middle of the parking lot
I got love, love, love baby in the back seat of my car
I got high, high, high baby in the middle of the parking lot
I got love, love, love baby in the back seat of my car
I got bad habits going on
I got bad, bad habits going on
I got high, high, high baby in the middle of the parking lot
I got love, love, love baby in the back seat of my car
I got high, high, high baby in the middle of the parking lot
I got love, love, love baby in the back seat of my car
I got bad habits going on
I got bad, bad habits going on
I got bad habits going on, yeah
I got bad, bad habits going on

Guitar riff

I got high, high, high baby in the middle of the parking lot
I got love, love, love baby in the back seat of my car
I got high, high, high baby in the middle of the parking lot
I got love, love, love baby in the back seat of my car
I got bad habits going on, yeah
I got bad, bad habits going on
I got bad habits going on, baby
I got bad, bad habits going on, yeah
I got high, high, high baby in the middle of the parking lot
I got love, love, love baby in the back seat of my car
I got high, high, high baby in the middle of the parking lot
I got love, love, love baby in the back seat of my car
I got bad habits going on
I got bad, bad habits going on

Theresa's Comments

The chorus in a song is most likely the hook. I think the hook is what gets a song stuck in your head, so it could actually be a guitar lick or bass line also.

Jamie is Captain Hook. "Bad Habits" is just one long hook.

I first heard the term hook in a movie, “Uptown Girls”. The main character is the daughter of a musician. When a guy she's hooked up with plays her a song on his guitar, she tells him it needs a hook. Later, he hits it big and she sees him in a music video with that song and the song suddenly changes to a chorus, “Sheets of Egyptian cotton” which were the kind of sheets she had on her bed and she says to the TV, “He found the hook!” I have no idea why that has stuck with me for 16 years, but there you go. I guess it was the “hook” of that movie, for me.
