Small time people
Got their eyes on you
Never get away with the things you do
Dirty little secrets, dirty little lies
When you're caught red-handed
Then you can't deny

It's a sad situation, got a bad reputation
From the last night out with friends
I'm caught between heartbreak of heaven
And speaking of the devil
Here she comes again

Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down
Dirty little secrets, goin' round this town

You can hear the whispers behind your back
Living a lie it will never last
People never thinking of the way you feel
One stab in the back can never heal

Couldn't stand the temptation
Didn't need the frustration
Took a gamble I could never win
I'm feeling like a victim of emotion
Forget about demotion
Because, here she comes again

Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down
Dirty little secrets, goin' round this town

Didn't see it coming when I first met you
New kid in town had nothing to do
Late night caller knockin' at my door
Come to tell me her trouble couldn't take no more

Now I see the complication
Didn't need the aggravation
From the last night out with friends
I'm caught between heartbreak of heaven
And speaking of the devil
Here she comes again

Dirty little secrets, gonna drag you down
Dirty little secrets, all round this town
