Paint a rumour

(What's it gonna spread?)

Paint a rumour

(See the place go red)

I could tell you something

(Promise not to tell)

I could tell you something

(Promise not to sell)

It's a secret

I have heard a whisper

I have heard a whisper

(What did it say?)

I have heard a whisper

(Make it go away)

Don't believe a word of it

(Promise not to tell)

Don't repeat a word of it

(Promise not to sell)
