your name came up in conversation yesterday 
my best bet was to feign indifference 
you've got an awful reputation by the way
the table made a joke at your expense 
didn't believe a word 
i don't believe what they say 
it smacked of jealousy 
i know it's only notoriety 

my reputation might precede me baby 
forget the rumours and the hearsay 
you think i never pay attention to you 
i guess you think i look the other way 
i don't care what you've heard 
why d'you believe what they say? 
i'll come to your defence 
you know it's only notoriety 

to hell with our outrageous fortune baby 
we've got a sea of troubles in our sights 
we don't need recklessness or caution 
to catch the gossip-mongers dead to rights 
let them all speculate 
they ain't got a clue anyway 
just use your common sense 
you know it's only notoriety 

hear no evil and speak no evil 
see no evil lest it come your way
