Gossipmonger by Gino Di Nunno from Greensburg, Pa U.s. Minor Outlying Islands

gossipmonger (g. di nunno)

all gather round to hear the latest news
quiet whispers behind some doors
by asking probing questions leads to response
and they're always coming back for more

chorus:
who's banging whom; who's loaded with debt
stealing from the workplace; who hasn't been home yet
who's binging on their lunchbreaks --everybody knows
there's so much to tell, but don't you tell a soul

por to be just to rise above it all
laugh about it when it goes down
trump card to play while covering your back
take reward when there's sin around

chorus:
oh their faces with secrets exposed
isn't it great when they get what they deserve
your hands aren't clean, so add a little lie
got more juicy bits you're holding in reserve

bridge:
once again it happens, and it never seems to fail
a slip or two off line human weakness prevails
frolic in tragedy, buzz creation starts anew
flapping tongues spread the word, tears the promises in two.
