Edited version of a song a co-wrote with and old friend. He wrote the music. I wrote the lyrics.

I hear the things they say about you.

I see the rumors flying about.

It is only talk.

That’s what I tell myself,

But I know their true when I hear your lame excuse.

To start a scandal,

That’s what I do.

When the truth is unveiled,

That is when I lose.

You’re so dumb

To think I would take you back.

You’re not the bomb.

You’re not the one.

With you’re hideous ways you scare away the sun.

You start a scandal.

That’s all you know how to do.

Now the truth’s unveiled.

You can get a clue.

I don’t need you anymore,

Not that I ever did.

Take your promises, wishes and dreams

Send them to oblivion with your dirty schemes.

You’ve used all you’ve stored.

Take your scandal

And let it keep you warm at night.

You’re too much to handle.

I’m so tired of your dirty sight.

Scandal!

That’s all I see.

You nothing be a vandal,

And that all you’ll ever be.
