Here Comes the Rumour Mill - The Young Knives

Here’s comes the rumour mill

And I’m not even trying

It’s a game of cat and mouse

But I can’t tell who’s lying

He’s spreading rumours

You can tell by the way I walk

That I am frightened

They’re bearing down on me

What have I done to spite them?

They keep on lying like they won’t really matter

And then those lies they just scatter and scatter

Can’t hear myself over the sound of the chatter

They keep on lying to you, they keep on lying to you

Here comes the vango man

It seems he’s delirious

He keeps mocking me

I can’t tell if he’s serious

He’s serious!

Have you seen how he jokes and he smiles?

Yet he sleeps like a child

Tall tales cliques and whispers

Tell of secret kisses

They keep on lying like they won’t really matter

And then those lies they just scatter and scatter

They keep on lying like they won’t really matter

And then those lies they just scatter and scatter

Can’t hear myself over the sound of the chatter

They keep on lying to you, they keep on lying to you

Here comes the bitter pill

But I don’t think he’ll take it

I won’t take it

Like you I’m scared of everything they’re saying

But I know there’s no other way, there’s no other way

Tall tales cliques and whispers

Tell of secret kisses

They keep on lying like they won’t really matter

And then those lies they just scatter and scatter

Can’t hear myself over the sound of the chatter

And you’ll be sorry when you…

They keep on lying like they won’t really matter

And then those lies they just scatter and scatter

They keep on lying like they won’t really matter

And then those lies they just scatter and scatter

Can’t hear myself over the sound of the chatter

They keep on lying to you * 8

And you’ll be sorry when you came to your senses!
