I'll talk to you, you can talk to me Don't go to them and speak for me Woah-oh, the messenger ain't what you should be Why do you feel the need?

Woah-oh-oh Gossip . . . I trusted you and you trusted me Now I can't tell you anything Woah-oh the messenger ain't what you should be Why did you do this to me? It ain't pretty Gossip gonna get ya down Ya can't stop it Flyin' through the town
