"Let's Be Bad"
Song

"Let's Be Bad" is an original song introduced in the fifth episode of the first season of the musical TV series Smash, entitled "Let's Be Bad". It was written by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman,[1] but within the show's universe, it was written by the songwriting team Tom Levitt (Christian Borle) and Julia Houston (Debra Messing) for the Bombshell musical they are working on about Marilyn Monroe.

In the episode, the setting has Ivy Lynn (Megan Hilty) and the ensemble of Bombshell in a rehearsal room working on the song, while the show cuts away to a fantasy sequence of Ivy as Marilyn Monroe confronting her husband Arthur Miller and studio executives on her lateness and drug habits while trying to make a movie, with the ensemble members as various backup performers.

The song was initially released as a single on iTunes and Amazon.com's MP3 store and is currently available as a track on the cast albums The Music of Smash and Bombshell.
