Dangerous (Early Version) Lyrics

(Woah)

[Spoken Intro]
The way she came into the place, I knew right then and there
There was something different about this girl
The way she moved her hair, her face, her lines
Divinity in motion
As she stalked the room, I could feel the aura of her presence
Every head turned feeling passion and lust
The girl was persuasive, the girl I could not trust
The girl was bad, the girl was dangerous

[Verse 1]
She never knew but I was walking the line
She never thought that I would have the time
She'd never feel that I was going alone
She never thought and then she hang up the phone

[Chorus]
She's so dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money, throw away my time
You can call me honey, but you're no damn good for me
Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
I have to pray to god, 'cause I know how lust can blind
It's a passion of my soul, but you're no damn lover friend of mine
[Spoken Interlude]
She came at me in sections with the eyes of desire
I fell trapped into her web of sin
A touch, a kiss
A whisper of love, I was at the point of no return
Deep in the darkness of passion's insanity
I felt taken by lust's strange inhumanity
This girl was persuasive, this girl I could not trust
The girl was bad, the girl was dangerous

[Verse 2]
She never thought that I was walking the line
She'd never feel that I would have the time
She never thought that I was going alone
She came to me and then she hang up the phone

[Chorus]
She's so dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money, throw away my time
You can call me honey, but you're no damn good for me
Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
I have to pray to god, 'cause I know how lust can blind
It's a passion in my soul, but you're no damn lover friend of mine
(But you're no, but you're no)
(But you're no, but you're no)
(But you're no, but-)

[Bridge]
Da da, she tried to ruin my reputation
Da, she goin' around, he was the voice of information
That baby got me callin' away, and was the secrets in the constellation

And then it happened
She touched me

[Spoken Interlude]
And then it happened, she touched me
For the lips of a strange woman drop as a honeycomb
And her mouth was smoother than oil, but her innards bitter than wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword
But I loved it, 'cause it's dangerous

[Verse 3]
She never thought that I was walking the line
She'd never feel that I could have the time
She never thought that I was going alone
She came to me, and then she hang up the phone

[Chorus]
She's so dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money, rhrow away my time
You can call me honey, but you're no damn good for me
Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money, throw away my time
You can call me honey, but you're no damn good for me
Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
Take away my money, throw away my time
You can call me honey, but you're no damn good for me
Dangerous
The girl is so dangerous
I have to pray to god, 'cause I know how lust can blind
It's a passion in my soul, but you're no damn lover friend of mine
[Outro]
She came at me in sections with the eyes of desire
I fell trapped
The girl was bad, the girl was dangerous

[?] trust
The girl is dangerous

One, two, three, four, ah

Genius Annotation

Written by Jackson, Bill Bottrell & Teddy Riley, this early version of Dangerous was written during the Bad sessions (1985-1989). This track evolved from an earlier track that didn’t make the original Bad album called “Streetwalker”. Once this process was complete, Dangerous was reworked from 1990-1991 until it was fully finished as the album track for Dangerous.
