A song about dating a man who is hiding a secret.

Gentleman Spy

But the warning bells rang, panic took flight
In a crowded room, I braced for the fight
He pulled me close, said it's all just fun
But my gut screamed danger, told me to run
Caught in a battle, between fear and youth
I stood my ground, clung to the truth
[chorus]
He’s a bad apple, rotten to the core 
With a serpent’s hiss, he’s venom at the core 
In life’s orchard, a snake in the leaves 
Poisoned fruit, knowing no one believes
[verse]
I was young in a neon-lit town, 
At The Hidden Door, where shadows fell down A man with a badge, said, “Stay for a while” 
His charm was a mask, hiding a guile
Mama always warned me, about folks like these 
But I was young and naive, eager to please 
He poured me drinks, his eyes a darkened gleam
 His charm a facade, part of his scheme
[chorus]
He’s a bad apple, rotten to the core
 With a serpent’s hiss, he’s venom at the core 
In life’s orchard, a snake in the leaves 
Poisoned fruit, knowing no one believes
[female rocker scream] [guitar solo]
[verse] 
He said, “Come closer, let’s have some fun” 
With a gleam in his eye, like a loaded gun 
Caught in his web, a dark and twisted scheme 
My voice was silenced, felt like a bad dream

I felt the room spinning, as he poured another round 
My heart started racing, as I looked around 
I cried for help, the crowd turned to see 
Broke free from his grip, reclaimed my dignity

[chorus]
He’s a bad apple, rotten to the core With a serpent’s hiss, he’s venom at the core In life’s orchard, a snake in the leaves Poisoned fruit, knowing no one believes

Bad Apple (Rotten to the Core)
