E.T
You And What Army Lyrics

I heard it from a friend who
I received this information from someone I know personally

Heard it from a friend who
Who heard it from another person, making the source less reliable

Heard it from another you've been messin' around
They're saying you've been unfaithful to me

They say you've got a boy friend
Rumors suggest you have another lover

You're out late every weekend
People have seen you out socializing during the weekend, implying you are disloyal to me

They're talking about you and it's bringing me down
Hearing these rumors is making me very upset and worried about our relationship

But I know the neighborhood
I am familiar with the local gossip in this community

And talk is cheap when the story is good
People often gossip without knowing the true facts, and rumors can quickly escalate

And the tales grow taller on down the line
As the rumors continue to spread, they become more exaggerated and unrealistic

So I'm telling you babe
I am communicating this to you directly

That I don't think it's true babe
I don't believe these rumors are accurate

But even if it is keep this in mind
But regardless of whether it's true or not, remember this

You take it on the run babe
If you want to leave, then go

If that's the way you want it baby
If leaving is what you truly desire

Then I don't want you around
I don't want to be with someone who is unfaithful to me

You're under the gun so you take it on the run
You feel pressured to leave because of the rumors and accusations being made against you

You're thinkin' up your white lies
You are inventing false stories to justify your behavior

You're puttin' on your bedroom eyes
You are trying to seduce me to cover up your infidelity

You say you're comin' home but you won't say when
You are promising to come back, but you are not giving a specific time or date of your return

But I can feel it's comin'
I have a sense that this relationship is coming to an end

If you leave tonight keep running
If you leave, there's no turning back

And you need never look back again
You can move on from this relationship with a clear conscience

You take it on the run babe
If you want to leave, then go

If that's the way you want it baby
If leaving is what you truly desire

Then I don't want you around
I don't want to be with someone who is unfaithful to me

I don't believe it not for a minute
I don't trust these rumors at all

You're under the gun so you take it on the run
You are feeling pressure to leave this relationship because of the rumors and accusations made against you
