Somebody Told Me Lyrics - The Killers
Review The Song (31)
Breaking my back just to know your name
Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
I'm breaking my back just to know your name
But heaven ain't close in a place like this
Anything goes but don't blink you might miss
Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight
Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential
Ready? Let's roll onto something new
Taking its toll and I'm leaving without you
'Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight
Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential
A rushin', a rushin' around
Pace yourself for me
I said maybe baby please
But I just don't know now
When all I wanna do is try
[x3]
Somebody told me

Ok no | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/17/10
Yeah brandon flowers is gay. Are u retarded. The media have never accused him of being gay. He has a fricking girlfriend. And so what if he is gay? He is still very talented and if he was gay you still couldnt take that away from him
ok who cares wat the lyrics mean | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/6/08
ok who really gives a shit wat the lyrics mean?
the song is catchy so try to enjoy it while the killers are still popular? U r not brandon flowers so stop tryna understand wat the song means. The Killers' music is easy to listen to and enjoy all at once.
Rumors | Reviewer: Strap | 8/11/08
"17 tracks and I've had it with this game"
Flowers is sick of the fame that comes with stardom. He's only cut 17 tracks and he's already tired of it. Lots of rumors have started about him (that he's possibly gay). They bother him even though he never thought they would. This industry is far from the heaven he envisioned.
the meaning are obvious | Reviewer: the killers r soo damn hot | 3/1/08
i think the meaning of the song are quite clear... its about a guy who like a woman that he met at same place
the guy hear a rumour about that girl( she is a lesbian )and because of this romour he change his mind and leave the place without the girl....so he ruin his own night just becoz of this rumour.(he doesnt even know whether the rumour r true or not ) its like a one night story
just read the lyric properly and u will notice this

Femme dude | Reviewer: Paige | 1/15/08
I think that he's just making fun of the girl's last boyfriend, saying that he looked like a girl the singer used to date. or it could be just that it's just catchy lyrics. either way, it's a really good song.

(2004)
"Somebody Told Me" is a song written and performed by The Killers. The song is featured on the group's debut album Hot Fuss.
The speaker is a man at a nightclub trying to get the attention of the addressee. The lyrics refer to rumours that can spoil your night ("never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight"); the rumour itself is rather ambiguous, and could mean anything from the addressee being lesbian to being straight with a rather effete-looking boyfriend.
i dont think he's gay | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/30/07
sometimes lyrics dont mean anything. they are just in the song because the are catchy. i dont think either of them are gay because that would be kinda strange. maybe the boyfriend and girlfriend in the song are siblings or just happen to look alike! i dont think he is saying he is gay
