How it is that sad is a verb and bad is not a verb?

Because sad is a feeling and an expression . if i am sad my body has changed for example my face . On the other hand bad is a adjective to describe the body, bad is the past tense so for e.g you have been bad. and if your sad e.g you are sad , which is present tense.This is not correct.Both bad and sad are adjectives. They can be used in past or present tense sentences. eg He was sad / He is sad / He was bad / He is bad.Sad is not a verb because you cannot say - He sads me or He sadded me. Compare this to the verb punch- He punches me / He punched me.
