The Devil's Radio Songtext
von Reverend and the Makers

Why, why oh why
Do rumours rankle round?

A moment alone spent
Far from a maddening crowd
A girl with a secret
Imparts to a friend out loud
The contents of a letter
Another lover′s written down
Once gossip starts it shall recieve no end

Why, why oh why
Do rumours rankle round?


Armed with a secret
Jennifer couldn't keep quiet
And blabbed to her boyfriend
Who told all his mates that night
Dispense with the intrigue now
Somebody should let ′em know
Gossip is the Devil's Radio

Why, why oh why
Do rumours rankle round?

Weird looks in the local
Just serves to show
Gossip is the Devil's Radio
In the supermarket
At the school where your kids go
Gossip is the Devil′s Radio

Why, why oh why
Do rumours rankle round?
