Holding back cause there's nowhere to go
Hearing things that I don't want to know
But the rumour flies high, somehow it seems to get
Back to my heart, and it lies

They say things that I don't understand
And I know they have got the upperhand
But the rumour flies high, somehow it seems to get
Back to my heart, and lies
And oh but I believe

[Chorus:]
The rumour can turn it all around,
Yaeh the rumour can knock you to the ground,
Oh rumour, well hold on baby and let's not cry
Cause somehow its seems to get back to my heart and lies
Did you hear the rumour

Holding back cause there's nowhere to go
They say whatever he can't see well he'll never know,
But the rumour flies high, somehow it seems to get
Back to my heart, and it lies
Oh but I believe

[Chorus:]
The rumour can turn it all around,
Yeah the rumour can knock you to the ground,
Oh rumour, well hold on baby and let's not cry
Cause somehow its seems to get back to my heart and lies

It lies, and gets right back to you

[Chorus:]
And oh but I believe
The rumour, can turn it all around,
Oh the rumour, can knock you to the ground,
Oh rumour, well hold on baby and let's not cry
Cause somehow its seems to get back to my heart and lies
Did you hear the rumour
Yes it lies
Did you hear the rumour
Yes you lied
Cause somehow its seems to get back to my heart

Well I am the cancer running through your veins,
Well I am the sweat that's dripping down the side of your face.
Well I am the pain in the back of your legs, it makes you fall to your knees, to your knees, it makes you believe.
And I am the headline, that’s going to make front page news,
I am the fashion that you’re all into.

Well we had to try something different,
Had to try something new,
We had to make some heads turn,
Had to put this to you,
We had to try something different,
Had to try something new,
We had to make some heads turn,
We had to put this to you.

And I am the rumour on everyone's lips,
I am the curse on your girlfriend's hips.
We are the different so we’ll make a start,
Tell all of your friends, and sound the alarm.

And I am that feeling that you’ve done something wrong,
I am that friend who knew all along.
We say we have our best friends, yet we stab them in the back,
We try to show some love and, it’s a skill that we lack.
I've had it with this crowd, I'm done with this town,
I've had enough of these shows, and it's over with you now.

We try to do something different,
Had to try something new,
We had to make some heads turn,
Had to put this to you,
We try to do something different,
Had to try something new,
We had to make some heads turn,
We had to put this to you.

And I am the rumour on everyone's lips,
I am the curse on your girlfriend's hips.
We are the different, we’ll make a start,
Tell all of your friends, and sound the alarm.

Hold your hands in, into the air,
Hold your hands as, as if you care.

Oh hold on

(Screams)
Oh Josh, they talk shit,
Behind your back, they talk about you all the time.
Behind your back, they spread some shit and spread some lies.
Behind your back, they talk about you all the time, it's old old news.

Behind your back, they talk about you all the time.
Behind your back, they spread some shit and spread some lies.
Behind your back, they talk about you all the time, it's old old news.

Holding back cause there's nowhere to go
Hearing things that I don't want to know
But the rumour flies high, somehow it seems to get
Back to my heart, and it lies

They say things that I don't understand
And I know they have got the upperhand
But the rumour flies high, somehow it seems to get
Back to my heart, and lies
And oh but I believe

[Chorus:]
The rumour can turn it all around,
Yaeh the rumour can knock you to the ground,
Oh rumour, well hold on baby and let's not cry
Cause somehow its seems to get back to my heart and lies
Did you hear the rumour

Holding back cause there's nowhere to go
They say whatever he can't see well he'll never know,
But the rumour flies high, somehow it seems to get
Back to my heart, and it lies
Oh but I believe

[Chorus:]
The rumour can turn it all around,
Yeah the rumour can knock you to the ground,
Oh rumour, well hold on baby and let's not cry
Cause somehow its seems to get back to my heart and lies

It lies, and gets right back to you

[Chorus:]
And oh but I believe
The rumour, can turn it all around,
Oh the rumour, can knock you to the ground,
Oh rumour, well hold on baby and let's not cry
Cause somehow its seems to get back to my heart and lies
Did you hear the rumour
Yes it lies
Did you hear the rumour
Yes you lied
Cause somehow its seems to get back to my heart
