Dirty Diana

"Dirty Diana" is a song by Michael Jackson from his 1987 album 'Bad'. It was the fifth and last number one hit from the album on the Billboard Hot 100, and featured a hard rock sound similar to that of Beat It from Jackson's 'Thriller' album. The song features Steve Stevens on guitar. There was much speculation surrounding who the track was about. Jackson later said himself the song is about groupies.

[Verse 1] You'll never make me stay So take your weight off of me I know your every move So won't you just let me be? I've been here times before But I was too blind to see That you seduce every man This time, you won't seduce me [Pre-Chorus] She's saying "That's okay Hey baby, do what you please I have the stuff that you want I am the thing that you need" She looked me deep in the eyes She's touching me so to start She says "There's no turning back" She trapped me in her heart [Chorus] Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, let me be! Oh no, oh no, oh no [Verse 2] She likes the boys in the band She knows when they come to town Every musician's fan After the curtain comes down She waits at backstage doors For those who have prestige Who promise fortune and fame A life that's so carefree [Pre-Chorus] She's saying "That's okay Hey baby, do what you want I'll be your night-loving thing I'll be the freak you can taunt And I don't care what you say I want to go too far I'll be your everything If you make me a star" [Chorus] Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana [Interlude] Diana Diana Dirty Diana It's Diana, -iana, -iana C'mon! [Verse 3] She said "I have to go home 'Cause I'm real tired, you see But I hate sleeping alone Why don't you come with me?" I said "My baby's at home She's probably worried tonight I didn't call on the phone To say that I'm alright" [Pre-Chorus] Diana walked up to me She said, "I'm all yours tonight" At that, I ran to the phone Saying, "Baby, I'm alright" I said "But unlock the door 'Cause I forgot the key" She said "He's not coming back Because he's sleeping with me" [Chorus] Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana, no Dirty Diana [Outro] C'mon!
