[00:47.04] you say I never pay attention
[00:49.74] what makes you think i look the other way
[00:54.41] you let me be the judge
[00:56.95] i don't believe what they say
[01:04.08] your name came up in conversation yesterday
[01:08.63] my best bet was to feign indifference
[01:13.56] you've got an awful reputation by the way
[01:17.85] the table made a joke at your expense
[01:23.29] didn't believe a word
[01:25.72] i don't believe what they say
[01:32.96] it smacked of jealousy
[01:35.77] i now it's only notoriety
[01:47.35] my reputation might precede me baby
[01:52.06] forget the rumours and the hearsay
[01:56.90] you think i never pay attention to you
[02:01.87] i guess you think i look the other way
[02:06.53] i don't care what you've heard
[02:08.80] why d'you believe what they say
[02:15.97] i'll come to your defence
[02:18.55] you know it's only notoriety
[02:54.52] to hell with our outrageous fortune baby
[02:59.10] we've got a sea of troubles in our sights
[03:04.15] we don't need recklessness or caution
[03:09.11] to catch the gossip-mongers dead to rights
[03:13.87] let them all speculate
[03:16.21] they ain't got a clue anyway
[03:23.16] just use your common sense
[03:26.08] you know it's only notoriety
[03:57.09] hear no evil and speak no evil
[04:02.77] see no evil lest it come your way
