Word Is Out

Ooh, yeah (the word is out)

Now word is out

Innocence

Word is out, over town

Now the word is out (the word is out)

Now the word is out, the word is out

You're clinging to a lie

Still, you hope to try and save your face, ooh

It's a no-win situation

There ain't gonna be a saving grace

Because you're sticking to a story

It really makes no sense

No judge or jury could ignore the evidence

Because the word is out

I can't go on believing in your innocence

(Now the word is out, the word is out)

The word is out, you can't go on pretending, it's all over town

(Now the word is out, the word is out)

Ain't but one redeeming feature

So you may as well accept your fate (accept your fate)

Ooh-ooh

You can't wriggle out of this, it's gone too far

It's much too late (it's much too late)

But it's funny, my suspicions lead me to the lie

From the friend of a so-called friend

I heard about your double life

Because the word is out

I can't go on believing in your innocence

(Now the word is out, the word is out)

The word is out, you can't go on pretending, it's all over town

(Now the word is out, the word is out)

Ooh, yeah

Because the word is out

(Can't go on pretending) innocence

(The word is out) the word is out

(Yeah-eh) over town

It's all over town

Because the word is out, ooh-ooh

I can't go on believing in your innocence (word is out)

The word is out (oh, yeah)

You can't go on pretending, it's all over town (ooh, ooh, -oh-ooh)

(The word is out) because the word is out

I can't go on believing in your innocence (oh-oh)

(The word is out, the word is out) the word is out

You can't go on pretending, it's all over town
