I wish somebody'd get married
Or maybe even have a baby
Hope the home team finally makes
It all the way to state

Hell, it'd even be a blessing
If somebody got arrested
Yeah, whatever it takes
To forget our heartbreak

How can I
Ever find somebody new
When they keep
Reminding me of you

I don't wanna be the talk of this town
The buzz at the bar, word going 'round
Like front-page news and it's too loud to ignore
Like we lit a match when we broke up

Now the little of what's still left of us
Is burning door to door
I don't wanna be the talk of this town anymore

Heard that I was going crazy
And that you've been drinking lately
Everybody's taking sides
Little lies in checkout lines

Oh, I pray
For some kind of distraction
Can we all just act like
Nothing ever happened

I don't wanna be the talk of this town
The buzz at the bar, word going 'round
Like front-page news and it's too loud to ignore
Like we lit a match when we broke up

Now the little of what's still left of us
Is burning door to door
I don't wanna be the talk of this town anymore
Oh, anymore

Baby, I could get over you
If you and I could be old news

Oh, I don't wanna be the talk of this town
The buzz at the bar, word going 'round
Like front-page news and it's too loud to ignore
Like we lit a match when we broke up

Now the little of what's still left of us
Is burning door to door
(Oh, burning, burning, burning)
No, I don't wanna be the talk of this town anymore
Whoa

No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna be
No, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be the talk anymore
No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna be
(No, I don't wanna be)
(I don't wanna be)
No, I don't wanna be the talk anymore
Whoa
