D-12 Lies & Rumors Lyrics

Lies & Rumors Lyrics

CHORUS:

They say that one little lie turns into another. Then you go and cheat

By the time you know it, you all wrapped up in a whole bunch of seaweed

You should listen to your mama and listen to your daddy when they try to
speak

And tell you that there’s just too many fishes in the sea.



No, no, no, no, no, no no no….

No, no, no, no, no, no no no….

No, no, no, no, no, no no no….

No, no, no, no, no, no no no….

No, no, no, no, no, no no no….

No, no, no, no, no, no no no….

No, no, no, no, no, no no no….

No, no, no, no, no, no no no….



Now this thing here, No cause concern, but

It’s just another story about a shark eating worms

It’s not a riddle, but subliminally catches on

How one little lie can turn into a bigger one



When I was a young guppy in the sea

You could see all the bigger fish picking on me

‘Cause they knew I didn’t really have the guard or bullet

And the other sharks that have teeth sharper than me



I’m a never-ending story about a shark this big

The load of kids that got an act for fizz

So sit back, kick back with a bag of chips

While I tell you ‘bout something stupid I did…



CHORUS 



I’m off to work but I’m late [hey] But what can I say? [hey]

I’m cool with the boss and of course it’s a payday

We reachin’ the weekend and I’ll be treatin’ my baby

Typical day, dude’s in the way – But hey wait!

Shark’s in the water. Gotta duck in the corner ‘til I’m caught

I’m a talk and a walk where I wanna

eatin' the seaweed. Sippin’ this green tea.

Big fish in this small world. They’ll all believe me 

For knocking a shark off, protecting my city 

They all grab my CD and now I’m a popular rock star.

Like it or not though. I’m a marvelous artist.

Working my hardest and becoming a starfish.



Now what am I to do? The boss is on my back.

I gotta follow his orders when sharks attack

It’s a dangerous scene. But I’m a Rasta man

Cross me and my brother, it will cost ya, man.

And this little pip squeak is gettin’ on my nerves.

So my tentacles should give him just what he deserves.

So you better swim fast ‘cause I’m after ya

And go and hide inside the mouth of a clam or somethin’.

Cause I’m out and about. I’m bad news.

A henchman - a jellyfish with an attitude. So listen. 

Swim for your life ‘cause I’m on your tail

So frightenin’ I scare a snail outta it’s shell.



CHORUS



I love this liquid. I’m silly when I’m in it and I bet

[This water we’re standing in is wet. Duh….]

What do you expect from me? 

I’m a platinum Jack Dempsey. Trying to get a fee.

And everybody know that I’m the G of the sea.

I just knocked this shark off. The dude tried to eat me.

I guess he didn’t like me. It might be because I’m a Pisces.

They always try to take me lightly. So why the trouble?

I just wanna hustle and multiply bubbles and pump my muscles.

I don’t want to make a mistake ‘cause these fishermen will set you up

And I ain’t fallin’ for the bait 



Daddy – what are we gonna do with a fish with a tattoo? 

We’re gonna eat him. What do you think?



I’m a lion fish with dreams of making it big.

House in the ocean, three ugly kids.

And why everybody keep on picking on me?

I’m the sexiest, prettiest fish in the sea.

Heck no. I ain’t nobody dish

Cause I’m in love with Angie – the beautiful angelfish 

[kissing sound]

Give me a kiss baby

I’m running from the white shark

You are trying to make me crazy.



CHORUS
