Machine Gun Kelly and Fifth Harmony babe Camila Cabello recently collaborated to create a musical masterpiece, also known as ‘Bad Things.’ The song is definitely our new obsession and we simply cannot get enough of it, therefore, we were most excited when we discovered that the pair had dropped the lyric video for the track.
Last night, Camila teased fans with a Tweet, hinting that something rather awesome was coming today. She said “guess who has a surprise for you tomorrow ,’ using the lip Emoji to symbolise that the ‘surprise’ was related to ‘Bad Things’ as it has become associated with the song after the two used lips on the single artwork.
guess who has a surprise for you tomorrow ?

The lyric video is no basic lyric video, oh no, this hasn’t been made using Windows Movie Maker. It’s vibrant, artistic and the visuals are pretty fascinating if you ask us. Camila’s solos are written in a delicate font and placed over a colourful background in the style of a scrapbook while Machine Gun Kelly’s raps are written in a bolder, graffiti style text on blood-splattered paper and tattoos. It does make us pretty dizzy, though, as there is so much twisting, turning, rotating and spinning in the vid!
Check out the lyric video below and be sure to tell us what you think of it. Are you as addicted to the song as we are? Personally, we reckon it’s “so good that we can’t explain it” – pardon the pun.
