RUMORS AND LIES

At last speculation
My fine reputation 
Had been dragged through the mud
In your eyes. 
Those old sticks and stones
Might break these poor bones,
But I've been murdered 
By rumors and lies.... 

Well...
She told me that she told her 
That you heard it from him, 
That I said some things I didn't. 
You believed it once again.
I like to hear about these things 
That I haven't done,
'Cause life's so crazy lately,
Glad to hear I'm having fun.

Sticks and stones, may break my bones, 
But rumors and lies are gonna burry me...

Look at me I may be smiling 
As I'm saying these words 
But inside I'm really really burning
At these "Have you heards" 
You might think that simple folks 
have their own business to mind 
So why is it they seem to be
So busy watching mine? 

Sticks and stones, may break my bones,
But rumors and lies are gonna burry me...

All I get is gossip 
built on rumors and lies 
Till the truth sounds like 
It's just another alibi 
Sticks and stones 
May break my bones 
But these rumors and lies 
Are going to bury me
