"Telephone" lyrics

"Telephone"

Do you know (Do you know) what you think you know?
Maybe you don't who told you so
Aren't we all just playing telephone
Where'd you hear (Where'd you hear) what you think you heard
You spread the word so absurd
Did you catch it from a little bird
Blowing smoke don't it make you choke
Watch your flow before you go
Falling down like dominoes

When you say (You say) what you say (What you say)
It will come back to you just like a boomerang (Like a boomerang)
Those lies (Those lies) how they fly (How they fly)
When they come buzzin' you can shoo them all away

Do you believe (Do you believe) everything you read?
Wrong or right is it cut and dry
Left to right is it black and white
Rumor mill never sits still
It can give you chills it can give you thrills
Either way you're gonna get your fill

When you say (You say) what you say (What you say)
It will come back to you just like a boomerang (Like a boomerang)
Those lies (Those lies) how they fly (How they fly)
When they come buzzin' you can shoo them all away

Do you know what you think you know?
Maybe you don't who told you so
Aren't we all just playing telephone
Do you know (You know) what you think you know
Maybe you don't who told you so
Aren't we all just playing telephone

When you say (You say) what you say (What you say)
It will come back to you just like a boomerang (Like a boomerang)
Those lies (Those lies) how they fly (How they fly)
When they come buzzin' you can shoo them all away

Do you know what you think you know?
Maybe you don't who told you so
Aren't we all just playing telephone
