Billy told Mark and Marky told Jan

The wrapping will change but the story is the same

You gossipers and liars won't take the blame

And silence will speak again



Little Johnny he whispered to Sam

and none of them knew where the rumours began

They won't give a damn if the shit hits the fan

Oh people ain't got no shame



Oh, oh, oh salty lips telling lies

Let them talk let them fantasize

Oh, oh, oh salty lips telling lies

They don't need proof don't need alibis



Called up his sis who ran in to Sue

She talks on and on got nothing better to do

The secrets you tell will travel back to you

Touched up hot and new

The world got Liz she couldn't keep it for long

And when her friend's checking in to find out

what's going on

It always ends up where it doesn't belong

Whether it's right or wrong



Give us some more of those sweet lies will you

Tell us what's not for our ears

You little bird whisper

We are right beside ready to overhear
