Ooh baby, is it true, I heard a rumor going on about you

They say you're pushy, they say you're ugly

They say you never have any luck being lovely

Is it true.... is it true.... is it true, what they say about you

 

All you know, that there is always one, taking the spotlight from everyone

Stealing the pleasure and causing a frown

selling your soul to make you look so proud

Yes it's true....yes it's true....yes it's true, what they say about you

 

Get off your high horse, the world is not all yours

Listen up now and watch your mouth

Let me treat you to a ticket on the next train south

 

It's always with you, that little black cloud

You should lighten up, for cryin' out loud

Why do you shame yourself in front of your friends

Ooh I wonder is it ever gonna end

 

Well you know you'd be so at ease, in some dried up little town

Where no one knows you, they can't expose you

And not a conscious thought will be found

Yes it's true....yes it's true....yes it's true, what they say about you

 

Get off your whirlwind, pack all your bags in

Listen up now and watch your mouth

Let me treat you to a ticket on the next train south

 

Next train south....next train south....next train south, yeah
