Some people love the drama
they need it like it's air.
What do they get from all the stress
they feel...or don't they care?

They'll dredge up lots of turmoil
to make you turn your head.
But when you look too closely
you'll see that lies are said.

Don't let the spotlight dim
cause then they'll cause a stir.
You'd have to check the sources
to really know for sure.

Once they've been discovered
''It's someone else! ''... (of course)
Please spare me from the drama
and stop beating the dead horse.
