歌詞
[Verse 1]
Ooh, yeah
[Verse 2]
Word is out
(Now the word is out)
Innocence
Word is out
Over town
(Now the word is out)
Word is out
(Now the word is out)
(The word is out)
[Verse 3]
You're clinging to a lie
Still, you hope to try and save your face
It's a no-win situation
There ain't gonna be a saving grace
[Verse 4]
'Cause you're sticking to a story
Really makes no sense
No judge or jury
Could ignore the evidence
[Verse 5]
Because the word is out
I can't go on believin' in your
Innocence
(Now the word is out)
(The word is out)
The word is out
You can't go on pretendin'
It's all over town
Now the word is out
(The word is out)
[Verse 6]
But one redeeming feature
So you may as well accept your fate
(Accept your fate)
You can't wriggle out of this
It's gone too far, it's much too late
(It's much too late)
[Verse 7]
But it's funny, my suspicions
Lead me to the lie
From a friend of a so-called friend
I heard about your double life
[Verse 8]
Because the word is out
Can't go on believin' in your
Innocence
(Now the word is out)
(The word is out)
The word is out
You can't go on pretendin'
It's all over town
(Now the word is out)
(The word is out)
[Verse 9]
Ooh, yeah
[Verse 10]
Because the word is out
(Can't go on pretendin')
Innocence
(The word is out)
The word is out
(Yeah)
Over town
(Now the word is out) It's all over town
'Cause the word is out
I can't go on believin' in your
Innocence
(Now the word is out)
(The word is out) Can't go on this way
The word is out
Can't go on pretendin'
It's all over town
(Now the word is out)
(The word is out)
Because the word is out
Can't go on believin' in your (It's out)
Innocence
(Now the word is out)
(The word is out)
The word is out
Can't go on pretendin'
It's all over town
