Kiss N Tell Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Listen to yourself, you're a hot mess
St-t-tutter through your words, breakin' a sweat
What's it gonna take to confess
What we both know?
Yeah, I was out of town last weekend
You were feelin' like a pimp 'round your lame friends
Now your little party's gonna end
So, here we go
[Pre-Chorus]
Whoa, you got a secret
Whoa, you couldn't keep it
Whoa, somebody leaked it
And now some sh— about to go down
[Chorus]
I never thought that you would be the one
Actin' like a slut when I was gone
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell
You really shoulda kept it in your pants
I'm hearin' dirty stories from your friends
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
You're lookin' like a tool, not a baller (Baller)
You're actin' like a chick, why bother? (Bother)
I can find someone way hotter
With a bigger (Wow), well...
'Cause on top of all the ways that you messed up (Messed up)
You weren't smart enough to keep your stupid mouth shut (Mouth shut)
I'm so sick of it, I've had enough
I hope you cry
Listen to yourself, you're a hot mess
St-t-tutter through your words, breakin' a sweat
What's it gonna take to confess
What we both know?
Yeah, I was out of town last weekend
You were feelin' like a pimp 'round your lame friends
Now your little party's gonna end
So, here we go
[Pre-Chorus]
Whoa, you got a secret
Whoa, you couldn't keep it
Whoa, somebody leaked it
And now some sh— about to go down
[Chorus]
I never thought that you would be the one
Actin' like a slut when I was gone
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell
You really shoulda kept it in your pants
I'm hearin' dirty stories from your friends
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
You're lookin' like a tool, not a baller (Baller)
You're actin' like a chick, why bother? (Bother)
I can find someone way hotter
With a bigger (Wow), well...
'Cause on top of all the ways that you messed up (Messed up)
You weren't smart enough to keep your stupid mouth shut (Mouth shut)
I'm so sick of it, I've had enough
I hope you cry
[Pre-Chorus]
Whoa, you got a secret
Whoa, you couldn't keep it
Whoa, somebody leaked it
And now some sh— about to go down (Oh!)
[Chorus]
I never thought that you would be the one
Actin' like a slut when I was gone
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell
You really shoulda kept it in your pants
I'm hearin' dirty stories from your friends
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell, oh-oh
[Interlude]
Kiss and tell, kiss and tell
Kiss and tell, and, and kiss, and, and tell
Oh-oh
Kiss and tell, kiss and tell
Kiss and tell, and, and kiss, and, and t—
Oh-oh
[Bridge]
Oh, I hope you know you gotta go
Yo, get up and go, I don't wanna know
Who or why, you're gross, you gotta go
Yo, get up and go, 'cause I don't wanna know
Whoa, you got a secret
Whoa, you couldn't keep it
Whoa, somebody leaked it
And now some sh— about to go down (Oh!)
[Chorus]
I never thought that you would be the one
Actin' like a slut when I was gone
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell
You really shoulda kept it in your pants
I'm hearin' dirty stories from your friends
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell, oh-oh
[Interlude]
Kiss and tell, kiss and tell
Kiss and tell, and, and kiss, and, and tell
Oh-oh
Kiss and tell, kiss and tell
Kiss and tell, and, and kiss, and, and t—
Oh-oh
[Bridge]
Oh, I hope you know you gotta go
Yo, get up and go, I don't wanna know
Who or why, you're gross, you gotta go
Yo, get up and go, 'cause I don't wanna know
[Chorus]
I never thought that you would be the one (No)
Actin' like a slut when I was gone
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell
You, you really shoulda kept it in your pants
I'm hearin' dirty stories from your friends
Maybe you shouldn't (Maybe you shouldn't)
Oh-oh, kiss and tell (Kiss and tell)
[Outro]
Maybe you shouldn't (Maybe you shouldn't)
Oh-oh, kiss and tell, oh-oh
I never thought that you would be the one (No)
Actin' like a slut when I was gone
Maybe you shouldn't, oh-oh, kiss and tell
You, you really shoulda kept it in your pants
I'm hearin' dirty stories from your friends
Maybe you shouldn't (Maybe you shouldn't)
Oh-oh, kiss and tell (Kiss and tell)
[Outro]
Maybe you shouldn't (Maybe you shouldn't)
Oh-oh, kiss and tell, oh-oh
About
Genius Annotation
“Kiss ‘n 'Tell” is an upbeat, dance-pop track, featuring sounds similar to the rest of Animal while also maintaining its uniqueness.
Thematically, the song was inspired by Kesha discovering that her boyfriend was cheating on her with a famous pop star, whose name was never explicitly revealed to the public.
However – this boy spread around the story, and it came back to Kesha. This is her anthem against cheaters, like her ex-boyfriend.
