lyrics

I wanna start a rumor and I gotta start it quick
Like you're kissin in the kitchen, watch you lickin' your lips Singing to my choir
Light that fire at both ends of the wick
You believe it if I say it, got you tight in my fist
Starts with something little, but the whispers make it hot You'd think that it might fizzle, but momentum is hard to stop Just a little joy inside that poison and you just want a drop You'd buy it if sell it, it don't matter what cost
I think a little crooked, but I talk a little straight
I think you'd better listen, because you got something at stake And they gonna talk
They gonna talk about it
And they keep talking until they've got something to say
You like to tell your secrets?
Come in and close the door
I can brag about my knowledge every time that I get bored What's it like, the hike up there to my floor?
Like getting you to follow every time I blow the horn?
You start with something harmless, but the chatter make it hurt You think there's no way possible so you get self-assured
My soul's saved, so it can keep it's worth
It's so safe buried in the dirt
I think a little crooked, but I talk a little straight
And I know they'll listen, ‘cause they got something at stake And they gonna talk
They gonna talk about it
They gonna talk
They gonna talk about it
They gonna talk
They gonna talk about it
And they keep talking until they've got something to say
I think a little crooked, but I talk a little straight
And I think you'd better listen ‘cause I got something at stake And they gonna talk
They gonna talk about it
They gonna talk
They gonna talk about it
They gonna talk
And they keep talking until they've got something to say
