Babs Seed is a song sung by the Cutie Mark Crusaders in the episode One Bad Apple about their eponymous antagonist, Babs Seed. The song was released in a compressed (low-quality) form to Entertainment Weekly prior to the episode's airing.[1] The song was originally recorded in the "hard rock" genre.[2] This song serves as the eighth track on the album Songs of Ponyville. It also serves as the second of two bonus tracks of side B on the Celestia variant of the vinyl album Magical Friendship Tour.

Official remix[]

On November 27, 2012, Daniel Ingram made a tweet saying that he would post his own remix of the song after so many other fan remixes of the song had been made. The next day, his remix was posted to his Soundcloud account. Like Love Is In Bloom, this version of "Babs Seed" was produced with the help of Davey Badiuk and Sam Ryan of SOS Music, Ltd. As of February 10, 2014, the remix is no longer on Ingram's SoundCloud.

Babs Seed and CMC S03E04

The Cutie Mark Crusaders getting away from Babs Seed during the song.

[Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo]
Yeah, yeah, yeah 
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Apple Bloom]
First, we thought that Babs was so really, really sweet
A new friend to have, and it seemed like such a treat
[Scootaloo]
But then, we found the truth; she's just a bully from the east
She went from Babs, yeah, to a bully and a beast
[Apple Bloom]
Everywhere we turn, she's just a step ahead
[Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo]
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, what we gonna do?
Got a bully on our tail
Gotta hide, we gotta bail
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, if she's after you
Gotta run, we gotta flee
Gotta hurry, don't you see?
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad seed
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Apple Bloom]
Hiding from a bully, we know it isn't right
But the Cutie Mark Crusaders, we aren't lookin' for a fight
[Scootaloo]
Oh, she'll go home soon, and then we'll have some peace again
But for now, we're staying out of her way 'til then
[Apple Bloom]
Everywhere we turn, she's just a step ahead
[Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo]
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, what we gonna do?
Got a bully on our tail
Gotta hide, we gotta bail
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, if she's after you
Gotta run, we gotta flee
Gotta hurry, don't you see?
Why so mean? Why so crude?
Why so angry? Why so rude?
Can't you be nice? Can't we be friends?
Isn't it sad? Is this how it all ends?
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad-
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad-
Babs Seed, Babs Seed-
[Scootaloo]
She's just a bad, bad seed!
