Horns - Gossip

I heard it from a little bird

Who gave me permission

The smartest words I’ve ever heard

That the beat goes on

Some girls, they need proof

A real rude awakening

To chase the dogs away

To live and fight another day

'Cause the beat goes on

When the fire’s gone

Oh, anything can sound absurd

Depends on how you say it

As long as you have the first word

The rest is what you make it

Some boys don’t mean to

The real rude awakening

They know now what they say

So chase the dogs away

Because the beat goes on (yes it does, yes it does)

When the fire’s gone (when the fire’s gone, you know)

When the lights go down (when the lights go down, go down)

And the fun’s died out (oo)
