Lyrics
Miss Karen's curtains moving againEvery time a truck pulls inGot one eye on the cul-de-sacOne hand typing in the group chat
She knows who leftBut not what happenedKnows who criedBut not who's acting
She saw two shadows by the stairsNow she's got a whole affair
She don't need factsShe don't need proofJust a porch light viewAnd a little cheap truth
Miss Karen's curtainsKeep opening wideShe sees everythingBut never gets it right
Miss Karen's curtainsGot the whole town certainBut half what she heardAin't worth repeating twice
She said he was sneaking aroundTurns out his truck just broke downtownShe said she saw blue lights flashIt was pizza getting dropped off fast
She swore that girl was crying hardShe was laughing barefoot in the yardShe builds a fire from a sparkThen blames the smoke on the dark
She don't need factsShe don't need proofJust a porch light viewAnd a little cheap truth
Miss Karen's curtainsKeep opening wideShe sees everythingBut never gets it right
Miss Karen's curtainsGot the whole town certainBut half what she heardAin't worth repeating twice
Bless her heart, she means real wellBut Lord, that woman loves to tell
Every whisper, every guessTurns into breaking news at ten
We just wave when we walk byGive her something good tonight
Miss Karen's curtainsKeep opening wideShe sees everythingBut never gets it right
Miss Karen's curtainsGot the whole town certainBut half what she heardAin't worth repeating twice
Curtains moveLights come onBy sunriseThe story's wrong
