Bad by Michael Jackson is featured in Michael, the eleventh episode of Season Three. It is sung by the Dalton Academy Warblers and the New Directions, with solos from Artie, Blaine, Santana and Sebastian.

The sing-off takes place because The Warblers copied the New Directions' idea of performing a Michael Jackson number for Regionals, and this way the New Directions can show the Warblers that they deserve to do Michael. Will suggests the Glee Club follow the saying "What Would Michael Jackson Do?" and take their pain to the street.

After the song, Blaine jumps in front of Kurt when a slushie is thrown at him by Sebastian. Sebastian had added rock salt to the slushie in order to harm Kurt, instead he caused Blaine to get an eye injury.

Lyrics[]

Artie:
Ah, your butt is mine
Gonna take you right, ah
Just show your face
In broad daylight, ah
I'm telling you
On how I feel, ah
Gonna hurt your mind
Don't shoot to kill
Shamone, shamone,
Get on me all right...

Sebastian (with Santana):
Ah, I'm giving you
On a count of three, ah
(To show your stuff)
(Or let it be)
Ah,
I'm telling you
Just to watch your mouth, ah
(I know your game)
(What you're about)
Ah,

But they say the sky's the limit
And to me that's really true, ah
But my friends, you have seen nothing
Just wait 'til I get though

You're throwin' stones
To hide your hands (Artie: Ah)

But they say the sky's the limit
And to me that's really true, ah
But my friends, you have seen nothing
Just wait 'til I get through
