How do rumours get started?
Started by the jealous people
They get mad
See something they had
And somebody else is holding
They tell me that temptation
Is very hard to resist
But these wicked woman
Oh, they just persist
Maybe you think it's cute
But girl I'm not impressed
I tell you what I'm only
With my business please don't miss
When you look at all these rumours
Surrounding me every day
I just need some time
Some time to get away from
From all these rumours
I can't take it no more
My best friend said
That's why I'll never
Be with the girl next door
Did you hear the one about Tina?
Some say she's much to loose
That came straight from a guy
Who claims he has the proof
Did you hear the one about Michael?
Some say he must be gay
I tried to ague but they said
If he was straight, he wouldn't move that way
Did you hear the one about Susan?
Some say she's just a tease
In a camisole
She's six feet tall
She'll knock you to your knees (when you)...
When you look at all these rumours
Surrounding me everyday
I just need some time
Some time to get away from ?
From all these rumours
I can't take it no more
My best friend said
That's why I'll never
Be with the girl next door
I can't go no place
With somebody pointing a finger
Can't show my face
'Cause when it comes to rumours
I'm a dead ringer
It seems some rumours
I just can't get away
I bet there will be rumours
Floating around on judgement day
I think I'll write my congressman
And tell him to pass a bill
The next time they catch somebody
Spreading rumours shoot to kill
When you look at all these rumours
Surrounding me every day
I just need some time
Some time to get away from
From all these rumours
I can't take it no more
My best friend said
That's why I'll never
Be with the girl next door
Stop stop spreading those rumours around
Stop stop spreading those lies
What's mine is mine
I ain't got time
For rumours in my life
I'm a man who thinks
Not a man who drinks
So please let me live my life
When you look at all these rumours
Surrounding me every day
I just need some time
Some time to get away from ?
From all these rumours
I can't take it no more
My best friend said
That's why I'll never
Be with the girl next door
Lyrics: Andreas Kisser; Music: Andreas Kisser / Igor Cavalera
Loss for words - you lost respect
Food for thoughts - you're just a fool
Mind of the weak, nonsense says
The rumors will never die
The rumors are only lies
The rumors don't let you breathe
Talk is cheap
Games of lies - just fucking lies
It's all wrong - you're full of shit
Nothing's straight, no!
Low moves, low moves
The rumors will never die
The rumors are only lies
The rumors don't let you breathe
Talk is cheap
I thought I've heard
I thought I've said
I thought was right
It's never wrong
Let it be, just let it be
Never mind, just never mind
That's all you have, that's all you got
Never say what you never will
The rumors will never die
The rumors are only lies
The rumors don't let you breathe
Talk is cheap
[Steve Austin]
Hi this is Steve Austin reporting live from San Diego, California
I'm here with two controversial rappers from the city
Lil' Rob and Mr. Shadow aka the Mayhem Click
And we're talking about rumors
Now Lil' Rob we understand you have an album out called The Crazy Life
Can you tell us some of the rumors that have emerged since the release
Of that album, and some of the things you've been through
[Lil' Rob]
Well let me put it like this all these fools talking shit all the time
I was 16 with the bullet, representing the 619
But these fools couldn't take it, they didn't want me to make it
And so they'd rather hate it because they just can't fade it
Gang related, situated, now I'm back
These putos talking smack, but I kind of like that in a way
And one day I might say they're the ones who helped me do this
Had it in me all the time and I knew this, I'm still foolish
Fools are clueless to what I can do with my ability
Thought of myself as a cholo not a real MC
So I did what I did and I'm so glad that I did it
Because it put some chips in my pocket when I'm finished
Using words like simon and leva
People try to put me down but end up floating down the river
See I told you twice before, but I'll say it one more time
You do your thing holmes, but I'ma do mine
[Lil' Rob]
And basically that's what I think
All these fucking fools can talk all the fucking shit about me
Cuz I could give a fuck, you know what I mean
This proves I'm above their level, you know
Look at all these rumors, started by jealous people
Look at all these rumors, started by jealous people
[Steve Austin]
So Shadow, I understand you're having similar problems to those of Lil' Rob
Is there anything you'd like to say to them player-haters?
And if so, what would it be?
[Mr. Shadow]
Man I gotta give it up to those punk who try and diss me
Talking mad shit, but they miss me, remenice me
Because they used to talk head about my rhymes
And when they heard me on the radio they request it till I die
And I bust at it and I love you yapping lips
Cuz it makes me rap my rolas and my music, stack my chips
This is Shadow the crazy vato them fools want to battle
Then they end up on the gravel when they act like hoes and tattle
Now why would you want part of this truthfulness
Don't get caught up in the mix
Cuz I hate them phony putos dippin all up in my business
Ese gotta hit the street for all them fools that player-hate
Cuz ain't no bunch of chavalas stopping me from making bank
I need to take it to make it, like laws I break it unfaded
I'll be remaining like Satan, I'm serving hate to those who perpertrating
[Mr. Shadow]
That's pretty much how I feel
So I tell them haters you can only witness what you see
Not the things you hear
Remember that
Look at all these rumors, started by jealous people
Look at all these rumors, started by jealous people
[Steve Austin]
Since we're talking about rumors
I heard Lil' Rob and Shadow weren't always the best of friends
So Shadow can you clear that up for us and tell us what's really going on?
[Mr. Shadow]
Simon we had some problems but like adults we had to squash it
We formed the Mayhem Click (Why?) cuz everybody wants it
The badest motherfuckers together no one's ever gonna intimidate us
Just imitate us, player-hate us
Don't bother anylising anything we do
Cuz the shit we kick is tight and you know that this is true
Mr. Shadow and Lil' Rob making heads bob and it don't stop
Cuz we're bound to keep on flowing till you see our caskets drop
[Lil' Rob]
It's that one little cholo back before I go
Just thought I'd let you know that you can never stop my flow
So I suggest you put that shit to rest, quit talking all that mess
You're just talking about the best and you're just wasting your breath
As I sit here, thinking never thought it would be you
The city that I represent talking all that shit
See cuz all we do is kick it and mind my our business
Lil' Rob and Mr. Shadow (scratching fools off the bitch list)
[Mr. Shadow]
So now you know where we're coming from
And with that, it concludes our story for today
I hope you motherfuckers learned your leason
And learned how to keep your fucking trap shut
And quit spreading rumors that aren't true
Cuz that shit be getting motherfuckers in trouble
And believe me you don't want part of that
You don't want none of this Mayhem Click
And we're out
Look at all these rumors, started by jealous people
Look at all these rumors, started by jealous people
Look at all these rumors, started by jealous people
Look at all these rumors, started by jealous people

[Verse:]
Listen, I heard Suge smacked Game
I ain't say I seen Suge smack Game
I said my man told me Suge smacked Game, down in Miami
I just came back from down in Miami
I don't like no fake niggaz standin around me
Buck said Cam'ron fucked around and got robbed in Cali
But I heard it wasn't true, I ain't gonna spread that around dude
But the news said [?] Zeek snitched on you
They say Puff is the reason why Shine in a box
If I was him I'd come home and put Puff in a box
Heard DMX puff a lot
They say when the boy roll up his blunts he like to stuff in the rocks
Don't ask me I don't know if it's wrong or right love
Heard Foxy got her ass whooped in a night club
Don't blame me nigga I ain't make this stuff up
If half of it is true than I guess that's fucked up
[Chorus: x2]
He said she said
Nigga I heard the same shit you heard cause Rumors spread
These industry niggaz is worse than bitches
They all run they mouths, some get vicious
[Verse:]
Listen, I can't belive niggaz fightin over bitches anyway
I heard Carmelo stole my man Suger Jay
The industry sayin Mase leavin the game
My bitch from Jersey told me that Jaheim was gay
He ain't the only one that don't like pussy
I was in jail when I heard Trina do like pussy
Heard Gloria Malez like to sling her pussy
Got on a DVD and said Buddens ate her pussy (Damn!)
Niggaz talk but they don't really live
Got this Gorilla nigga tryin to sound like Big
The other day a nigga came through the hood with juice kid
Showed me two chains that belong to Woo-Kid
Let me tell you what I heard through the grapevine
The streets is sayin that Brooklyn is all mine
I heard these niggaz is scared of me
They said the industry ain't pepared for me
[Chrous x2]
[Verse:]
Listen, I was readin the daily news
When they said they had flicks with Lloyd Banks havin sex with a hairy dude
In the hood they say (?) is a scary dude
He from Marcy but he don't even come through
I heard Kalise head game is the bomb
She was Pharrell's bitch before she got with Nas
Some rappers don't play with they broads
Cause I heard Mack 10 ain't got a problem beatin on T-Boz
Look y'all it's what I heard I don't know if it's all fact
I'm just tryin to bring New York back
This is New York rap, now who want that

[Chorus x2]
[Outro: Talking]
Ha ha, all these niggaz is pussies anyway
Talkin and runnin they mouths and all that
Yeah!
Serenade me with rocks, love
No lullabies through the locks love
I locked myself in with the band
But the music's never loud enough
Decibels in the belfry
Hey what the hell if it helps me
I put a whip to the kick drum
But the music's never loud enough
So you're gonna have to show me
How that dance is done
The one where somebody leaves someone
My orchestra is gigantic
This thing could sink the Titanic
And the string section's screaming
Like horses in a barn burning up
He plays pianos with fistfuls
Of broken Belvedere crystal
And he's trying to forget you
But the music's never loud enough
So you're gonna have to show me
How that dance is done
The one where somebody leaves someone
He's impaling the front row
Fighting fires with arrows
And he'll act like he forgot you
But the music's never loud enough
So you're gonna have to show me
How that dance is done
[Chorus]

(Chris) Rumours
Walkin' through the Hamburg streets,
I see a bar, I better drink some beer.
A beast in red approaches me,
It's buy a drink or sleep with me.
Now I'm blown away!
Then come the thugs with a bat,
To make sure we pay.
Lies. Stories you're tellin'
You're makin' rumors.
You wanna dish out a scoop for your friends.
So you'll feel like someone,
Talkin' 'bout somethin',
Something you really know nothing about.
I bought her a drink.
but who would ever think?
It was 300 marks for champagne.
Typical set up, pay or be beat up!
Now you see what goes down,
Walkin' streets.
You're livin' out what I go through.
It's second hand.
It's not the truth that you want.
There'll be a time.
A change of mind.
You'll grow to find.
That living your own life
Means more than talking 'bout mine.
Saturday, stepping into the club
The music made me wanna tell the DJ, turn it up
I feel the energy all around
And my body can't stop movin' to the sound
But, I can tell that you're watching me
And your probably gonna write what you didn't see
Well I just need a little space to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy?
Why can't you just let me do the things I wanna do?
I just wanna be me, I don't understand why
Would you wanna bring me down
I'm only having fun, I'm gonna live my life
(But not the way that you want me to)
I'm tired of rumors starting, I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lying, saying what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me? Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way, take this for just what it is
Here we are back up in the club
People taking pictures, don't you think they get enough
I just wanna be all over the floor
And throw my hands up in the air to the beat like
(What?)
I gotta say respectfully
I would love it if you take the cameras off of me
'Cause I just need a little room to breathe
Can you please respect my privacy?
Why can't you just let me do the things I wanna do?
I just wanna be me, I don't understand why
Would you wanna bring me down?
I'm only having fun, I'm gonna live my life
(But not the way that you want me to)
I'm tired of rumors starting, I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lying, saying what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me? Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way, take this for just what it is
I just need to free my mind
(My mind)
Just wanna dance and have a good time
(Good time)
I'm tired of rumors, rumors
Followed, followed, followed, followed, followed, followed
What they?
(Followed me?)
Why can't they, they, they, they, they
They let me live?
Take this for just what it is
I'm tired of rumors starting, I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lying, saying what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me? Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way, take this for just what it is
I'm tired of rumors starting, I'm sick of being followed
I'm tired of people lying, saying what they want about me
Why can't they back up off me? Why can't they let me live?
I'm gonna do it my way, take this for just what it is
I'd cross the desert to be with you
I miss you, I miss you
I heard the rumors they all were true
I need you, I need you
Ooh, next to me, next to me
Ooh, next to me, next to me
I'll take off my make-up
I'll stop and listen
I am alive now
I watch my head spin
I'll take off my make-up
I'll stop and listen
I am alive now
I watch my head spin
I'm in love with things you can't define
And I'm in love with things you cannot buy
All for you, the one thing I know's true
All for you, take me and renew
Into the depths of the deepest sea
I fought you, I fought you
For all I know and all I can see
You come through, you come through
And all I am and all I can be
You're callin', you're callin'
So here you are in front of me
I've fallen, I've fallen
I'll take off my make-up
I'll stop and listen
I am alive now
I watch my head spin
I'll take off my make-up
I'll stop and listen
I am alive now
I watch my head spin
Round and round, the things I can't deny
And I'm in love with things you can't define
All for you, the one thing I know's true
All for you, take me and renew
And I walked away
But you were always on my mind
And I was afraid
That you would never come alive
There for me
When I was scared of you
You were there for me
When I wasn't there for you
I'm in love with things you can't define
And I'm in love with things you cannot buy
All for you, the one thing I know's true
Don't mean no disrespect
I now you got to have your friend
But when you come around him
It starts all over again
Talking about...
They're talking about...
Talking about they don't wanna say but they look like me
And they put it on your head don't believe
[Chorus:]
They just won't admit
The kind of life you live happy now
Looking for a way to come between us anyhow
They're always in your ear they don't know what they're talking about
Spreading rumors
They said I got a history
Of love might leave you fast
They tell you don't trust me
Cause...
And they're given...
If you don't know them... I will
[Chorus]
They don't appreciate
How deep the bond between us is
All they do is trying to... on you
They don't wanna see you doing baby
Keep a man that does the things I do for you
You can see
Changes going on
Could we change things too
Even if we really tried
My job my pay
Do they really mean a thing
My life the way I think
Could that really do it all
Sometimes in my sleep
My brain dreams me too deep
Lands of war and death
Lands of hate and mistrust
Don't you know my dreams
They're all too very clear
Don't you know my dreams
Falling so far from the truth
Playing catch up with no room
For me - to breathe
We know better than their lies
They have no right to criticize
We're always free
Don't wanna walk away
cause everything they say
Is just a drop in the ocean to me
It's just Rumours
They got no worth
Just words going round
Don't let them bring us down
They're just rumours
I know they hurt
I need you to believe in me
Not those rumours (rumours)
Blow them away
Rumours (rumours)
(Just) blow them away
(Hey)
Believe in half of what you see
and nothing that you hear
Their whispers whispers whispers
What do you want from us
There's nothing to discuss
Get out of my way, get outta my face - yeaaaah
Don't wanna walk away
Cause everything they say
Is just a drop in the ocean to me
It's just rumours
They got no worth
Just words going round
Don't let them bring us down
They're just rumours
I know they hurt
I need you to believe in me
Not those rumours (rumours)
Blow them away
Rumours (rumours)
(Just) blow them away
(Uh huhhh)
So just keep talking
So just keep talking
Believe in half of what you see
and nothing that you hear
Their whispers whispers
Yeaaah It's just rumours
They got no worth
Just words going round
Don't let them bring us down
They're just rumours
I know they hurt
I need you to believe in me
Not those rumours (rumours)
Blow them away
Rumours (rumours)
(Just) blow them away
So just keep talking
So just keep talking
So just keep talking
[Hook:]
All these diamonds on me, now that's ridiculous
Haters got they eyes on me, now that's suspicious
I hear all the gossip, I hear all the rumors
I'm not worried bout ya, [? ]
[repeat]
[Verse 1:]
Why they mad, cause I hit the clubs iced out
And I'm still on even when they turn the lights out
Diamonds on heat, and they sho be shinin
Keep my lopes on cause I don't want them to blind me
Yea, and I keep that tool
If it ain't on me it's on one of my dudes
See I'm really from the streets I jus hunt pro tools
I ain't braggin or flexin I'm bein honest to you
Now, these streets gon talk that the way it is
These haters gon hate, that's jus how it is
I get money everyday man that's how I live
Chopper knock ya ass out like some benadryl
[Hook]
[Verse 2:]
Since it's already cocked nigga jus blast
I'm a put bout 3 in a nigga ass
I don't care about a pussy nigga actin bad
I'm a leave his whole family cryin lookin sad
I'm a let the cutta cutta like you were some grass
One thing you don't need is me real mad
One thing I don't play with is my cash
You ain't michael jackson so you can't be too bad
Nigga say he want beef then he get beef
Must don't want peace cause he won't sleep
I ain't from miami but I keep heat
I ain't talkin to a sea when I say free
Nigga thinkin I'm a hoe that I can't be
Nigga look at how big my bank be
Niggas say they got a problem then solve me
I'm a get them niggas that robbed me
A nigga start then I finish, fuck the losing I'm winning
I ain't smiling or grinning this right here the beggining
And I will never be the pussy nigga that you are
[both]
You can conversate, debate, but get it straight
Rumors from consumers always make me break
About what he said, what she said
What I said, what who said
Well bust it and don't be mislaid
[Mike Master]
Yo Kay, first verse
[Sugar Kay]
I drive a Benzi car with the rag and kit
Huh, people gettin nosy, pokin all in my shit
Cause 1990 was the Buick, I was the nine-to-fiver
I dumped the shirt and tie, yo, I had to kick it liver
That's when my lifestyle started to switchin
And all the people from the neighborhood started to pitch in
The thoughts and misconceptions on what was goin on
This is what made Kay write the funky song
(Check this out)
Well I got a phone call from my next-door neighbor Rod
He said, "How comes you got a car and you got no job?"
I said, "Get out of my business, stop being nosy
Don't ask no more questions cause you don't even know me"
He hung up the phone and he told his wife Sheila
He knew it all the time I was a drug dealer
She said, "How you know?" "Well it's crystal clear
He has the gold, jazzy car and all the gear"
Yeah, they took it on theyself and called the c-o-p
And the whole police patrol had the watch on me
It didn't matter to Kay cause I was young, black and legal
But all the disbelievers hawkin me like an eagle
So I'm drivin my car up and down the block
I had the system cold pumpin at a 1000 watts
The cops pulled me over, said I'm disturbin the peace
I said, "Come on Officer, with funky beats like these?"
He snatched me out of the car, searched me from head to toe
I says, "What you're searching for?" He says, "I'm searchin for blow"
I said, "Come on, don't you hear the record pumpin every day?
I'm with the Kings Of Swing and my name is Sugar Kay"
"Oh, you're the one they call the Microphone Junkie?
I bought "Nod Your Head" yo, the jam sound funky
Can I have your autograph?" "Why, sure you can
Plus I hope you get two tickets to the next jam
Damn, but why you followed me?" "The neighbors filed complaints
I thought you're dealin drugs but I see that you ain't
So for all you Jabber-Jaws, spread the word around
Yo, Kay is the cleanest man in town"
So for all you knuckleheads, Jabber-Jaws and consumers
If you don't know the facts, yo, don't spread the rumors
[Mike Master]
Hey yo Kay, that was dope, uknowmsayin?
I could relate to what you was talkin about
I have a problem with these rumors too
(Word?)
Word
(So Mike, won't you kick a little somethin, man)
Cool
(Yo Mike, second verse)
[Mike Master]
I'm clockin shows, gettin paid, makin dollars in knots
Surrounded by the jazzy ladies while I'm rockin the spot
So many of them I can choose from but I leave em alone
Because I got a girl at home of my very own
But see, the ???? and the rumors always start to show
From out of nowhere from people you don't even know
Talkin bout how Mike likes to skeeze and get
And pull panties but they yappin and that makes me upset
It's just the classic case of nosiness, I shouldn't even bother
But I'ma set it straight cause I'm the Deacon, I'm the Father
(Check this out)
Well my girlfriend's cousin's friend told Mary and Sue
That Mike was always on the roll cold doin the do
"He's spankin booty all the time"
"How you know?" "Cause I'm not blind
He's a rapper and you know he's bustin more than his rhyme"
You're like a gossip columnist, you started spreadin the word
Went from ear to ear to ear till my girlfriend heard
I tried to say it wasn't true, but she wouldn't believe me
All that she could say was: "How could you deceive me?"
This went on and on till the early mornin
Till she felt deep down that my word was bond
Tears runnin down her eyes and past her lip
She said, "I'll never listen to another word of gossip"
I could tell she was hurt but she held her own
That's why I speak these words on the microphone
To all you nosy people, busy-bodies and all assumers
If you don't know the facts, yo, don't spread the rumors
[Sugar Kay]
Hey yo Mike that rhyme was smooth, uknowmsayin?
[Mike Master]
Yeah word, you know I had to kick it
[Sugar Kay]
Yo, people talkin ain't got no facts but they spreadin these rumors, man
Yo, check this out
[both]
You can conversate, debate, but get it straight
Rumors from consumers always make me break

Chorus
Do dooby dooby
Sha la la la...
Everyone in town
Just wants to put me down
With their rumors (rumors)
They've been telling you
That your baby's been untrue
But it's rumors (rumors)
Aw, people love to talk
Let them have their say
They can take a walk
We'll make out okay
Darling, this you must believe
I would never, never
Ever leave you
People jealous of a boy and
Girl in love started rumors (rumors)
Dont believe a word of
Those silly things you heard
Theyre just rumors (rumors)
Aw, let the rumors fly
You'll find by and by
Deep within my heart
You're the only one that I adore
So don't believe the rumors anymore
Aw, let the rumors fly
You'll find by and by
Deep within my heart
You're the only one that I adore
Lyrics courtesy Top40db.
So don't believe the rumors anymore
Do dooby dooby

(verse)
How do rumors get started?-thier started by the jealous people
and- they
get mad about somthin'they had, and sombody else is holdin'- They
tell
me that temptation is very hard to resist- these wicked women ,
oohh they
just persist- maybe you think it's cute , but girl I'm not
impressed-I tell
you one time only with my business please don't mess--
(chorus)
Did you hear the one about susan?-some say she's much too loose-
that
came straight from a guy who claims he's tastin' her juice- Did
you hear the
one about Michael? - Some say he must be gay- I tried to argue
but they said
if he were straight he would'nt move that way- Did you hear the
one about
Tina? - some say she's just a tease- in a camosal she's six feet
tall
she'll knock you to you knees..
(chorus)
I can't go no place without somebody pointin' a finger- I can't
show my
face cuz when it comes to rumors I'm a dead ringer- I'll think
I'll
write my congressman and tell him to pass a bill- the next time

somebody started rumors-shoot to kill!--
(chorus)
How do rumors get started, they're started by the jealous people and
They get mad seein' somethin' they had and sombody else is holdin'
Tell me that temptation is very hard to resist
But these wicked women, ooh, they just persist
Maybe you think it's cute, but girl, I'm not impressed
I tell you one time only with my business please don't mess
Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
I just need some time, some time to get away from
From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door
Hear the one about Tina, some say she's much too loose
That came straight from a guy who claims he's tastin' her juice
Hear the one about Michael, some say he must be gay
I try to argue, but they said if he was straight he wouldn't move that way
Hear the one about Susan, some say she's just a tease
In a camisole she's six feet tall, she'll knock you to you knees
Will you look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
I just need some time, some time to get away from
From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door
I can't go no place without somebody pointin' a finger
I can't show my face â'cause when it comes to rumors I'm a dead ringer
It seems from rumors I just can't get away
I bet there'll even be rumors floatin' around on Judgment Day
I'll think I'll write my congressman and tell him to pass a bill
For the next time they catch somebody startin' rumors, shoot to kill
Will you look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
I just need some time, some time to get away from
From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door
What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life
What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life
What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life
Will you look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
I just need some time, some time to get away from
From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door
Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day

From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door
