Small time people Got their eyes on you Never get away with the things you do Dirty little secrets, dirty little lies When you're caught red-handed Then you can't deny It's a sad situation, got a bad reputation From the last night out with friends I'm caught between heartbreak of heaven And speaking of the devil Here she comes again Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down Dirty little secrets, goin' round this town You can hear the whispers behind your back Living a lie it will never last People never thinking of the way you feel One stab in the back can never heal Couldn't stand the temptation Didn't need the frustration Took a gamble I could never win I'm feeling like a victim of emotion Forget about demotion Because, here she comes again Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down Dirty little secrets, goin' round this town Didn't see it coming when I first met you New kid in town had nothing to do Late night caller knockin' at my door Come to tell me her trouble couldn't take no more Now I see the complication Didn't need the aggravation From the last night out with friends I'm caught between heartbreak of heaven And speaking of the devil Here she comes again Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down Dirty little secrets, all round this town
