Tom Walker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or where the story ends
You won't say it to my face
But you'll say it to my friends
You're kicking up a fuss
I don't know who to trust
Whispers in the playground, heaven knows we're old enough
I'll give you something, something to talk about
'Cause when you run your mouth like you run this town
Don't you think I don't know how it all went down?
So talk that talk 'cause it all comes back around
'Cause I believe in karma
And you believe in drama
You should try a little harder
Or karma's gonna come for you
'Cause I believe in karma
And you believe in drama
You should try a little harder
Or karma's gonna come for you
Why you cooking in my kitchen?
Making it your business?
There ain't no truth in none of this
So can I get a witness
Won't you leave it all alone
And get up off your throne?
And no running your shit around, just leave it all at home
You can talk that talk but it all comes back around
I'll give you something, something to talk about
'Cause I believe in karma
And you believe in drama
You should try a little harder
Or karma's gonna come for you
'Cause I believe in karma
And you believe in drama
You should try a little harder
Yeha or karma's gonna come for you
'Cause you get what you get
Why do they always fall for it?
And the truth will come out
You gon' be left for dead, left for dead
'Cause I believe in karma
And you believe in drama
You should try a little harder
Or karma's gonna come for you
'Cause I believe in karma
And you believe in drama, no, no, no, no
You should try a little harder
Yeah, or karma's gonna come for you
