Ms. Nosy

Steven West
Don't call me Ms. Nosy,
I'm not sneaking all around.
I'm not interested in gossip
Or who has come to town.
I'm not a busy body.
I'm not intruding in other people's affairs.
I'm just an innocent woman
Honest, decent, and fair.
So if you have a problem
Or need some useful advice,
Come see me at my home.
Don't think about it twice.
I promise I will keep
This conversation confidential
Unless you tell me something juicy
With a lot of scandalous potential.
Then I might accidentally leak
A little information.
I'll make sure I get the word out
While I am on vacation.
