This song talks about the point of view of a boy who is approached flirtatiously by a girl, who seemingly wants to get with him, however the boy knows she has a significant other and is reluctant because of this but still struggles to reject her.
Alex Turner for NME:
"'I had a girlfriend most of last year so it weren’t like I was going mad after gigs or anything, but perhaps there’s more temptation and stuff now. There’s a lot of temptation in the album…. ‘The Bad Thing’ is these three things that happened, meeting three lasses on separate occasions and it all ended up in there.'"
