Rumors - 12" Maxi Version

How do rumors get started,
They're started by the jealous people (and)
They get mad
Seeing something they had
And somebody else is holding
They tell me that temptation
Is very hard to resist
But these wicked women
Ooh, they just persist
(Now) Maybe you think it's cute
But girl, I'm not impressed
I'll tell you one time only
With my business please don't mess

(When you) look at all these rumors
Surrounding me every day
I just need some time
Some time to get away (from)
From all these rumors
I can't take it no more
My best friend said
There's one out now
About me and the girl next door

Did you hear the one about Tina
Some say she's much too loose
That came straight from a guy
Who claims he's tasted her juice
Did you hear the one about Michael
Some say he must be gay
I tried to argue, but they said
If he was straight he wouldn't move that way
Did you hear that one about Susan
Some say she's just a tease
In a camisole, she's six feet tall
She'll knock you to your knees

(When you) look at all these rumors
Surrounding me every day
I just need some time
Some time to get away (from)
From all these rumors
I can't take it no more
My best friend said
There's one out now
About me and the girl next door

I can't go no place
Without somebody pointing their finger
I can't show my face
Cause when it comes to rumors
I'm a dead ringer
It seems from rumors
I just can't get away
I'll bet there'll even be rumors
Floating around on Judgment Day
I'll think I'll write my congressman
And tell him to pass a bill
The next time they catch somebody
Starting rumors, shoot to kill

(When you) look at all these rumors
Surrounding me every day
I just need some time
Some time to get away (from)
From all these rumors
I can't take it no more
My best friend said
There's one out now
About me and the girl next door

What's mine is mine
I ain't got time for rumors in my life
I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks
So please let me live my life

(When you) look at all these rumors
Surrounding me every day
I just need some time
Some time to get away (from)
From all these rumors
I can't take it no more
My best friend said
There's one out now
About me and the girl next door
