Rumour Goin' round

Rumors fly

Like the writing in the sky

There's a part of town

I'm not supposed to go

Danger signs

That you read between the lines

And there's someone there

I'm not allowed to know

I heard there's a rumor going round

There's gonna be a showdown

I heard there's a rumor going round

One of us is leaving town

Lying eyes

And it comes as no surprise

That they follow me

In every place I go

Should I stay

Should I turn and walk away

There's a part of me

That does not want to know

Cause I heard there's a rumor going round

I caught it on the rebound

I heard there's a rumor going round

Trouble could be back in town

Shadows fall

On the writing on the wall

If you look too long

You see it fade away

I'm aware

There was something in the air

And the spoken word

Is just a game we play

And I heard there's a rumor going round

No one's gonna back down

I heard there's a rumor going round

Trouble could be back in town

I heard there's a rumor going round

There's gonna be a showdown

Someone's gonna win

Someone's gonna lose

But nobody is backing down

I heard there's a rumor going round

They're heading for a showdown

Something's going round

Something's going on

One of us is leaving town
