[Intro]
Rumour, rumour, rumour
Rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour, rumour
Rumour, rumour away

[Verse 1]
There was an old man who lived in a house, a big white house
Who had some naughty children who had some naughty mouths
Put your eye to the keyhole, Charlie boy
Can you see where they tried to screw you?

[Chorus]
Rumour, rumour, rumour
Rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour, rumour
Rumour, rumour away

[Verse 2]
I will set you free if you will vote for me
All you've got to vote for are the things you'll never see
Put your ear to the keyhole, Charlie boy
Can you hear where they're tryin' to screw you?

[Chorus]
Rumour, rumour, rumour
Rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour away
[Bridge]
Listen
Did you know that the man next door is makin' it
With the woman next door? (No)
Yes he is, yes he is
Do we think that people in high places
Never score?
Bum, bum, bum

Can you dig this, man
Ha

[Verse 3]
I will vouch for you if you will vouch for me
All you've got to vouch for are the things you didn't see
Put your eye to the keyhole, Charlie boy
Can you see where they tried to screw you?

[Chorus]
Rumour, rumour, rumour
Rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour away

[Bridge]
Listen
Did you know that the man across the street is makin' it
With the man across the street? (No)
Yes he is, yes he is
Did you know that the man in the green skin
Has got green feet?
A bum-bum-bum
Heh, it's got to be a rumour, man

[Chorus]
Rumour, rumour, rumour
Rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour away

Rumour, rumour, rumour (Hey, did you hear about Nicki?)
Rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour, rumour (Nicki's been peeping through the keyhole, man)
Rumour, rumour away (Yeah?)

Rumour, rumour, rumour (Yeah)
Rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour, rumour away
Rumour, rumour away
