[Intro]
Lorene, love, please stay a bit tonight
Call it what you like if right
Lorene, love, don't you know I fell too hard?
Hearts never broke so well
Lorene, no, don't you kiss and tell
No means no, don't you kiss and tell
No means no, don't you kiss and tell
No means no, don't you kiss and tell
[Verse 1]
It's a little red cherry
When you bury
Any evidence you got
If you feel a bit shallow
On the gallows
Can we try a new gunshot?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Like when kids say "never say never"
Runnin' blind with a pair of sharp scissors
So if I'm gonna go try this, alibi this
We are innocent, but lost
[Chorus]
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a bit so scary
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a bit of pain
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a little like wolves at night
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) With a bit of fear
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) And an angry lover
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) We can disappear
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) But they will never let us recover
I can't let this one go
[Verse 2]
My heart's a little bit tired
And expired
Just a coward in liftoff
It's got a little bit risky
To be happy
Tow the edge 'til we fall off
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm living the worst way ever
Gettin' high while playin' with fire
So if I'm gonna go try this, satisfy this
Watch the bomb I made go off
[Chorus]
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a bit so scary
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a bit of pain
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a little like wolves at night
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) With a bit of fear
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) And an angry lover
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) We can disappear
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) But they will never let us recover
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a bit so scary
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a bit of pain
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a little like wolves at night
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) With a bit of fear
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) And an angry lover
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) We can disappear
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) But they will never let us recover
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a bit so scary
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a bit of pain
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) It's a little like wolves at night
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) With a bit of fear
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) And an angry lover
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) We can disappear
(No, no, don't you kiss and tell) But they will never let us recover
[Outro]
I can't wait, this one won't
Last if I don't let her go
Kiss & Tell was written by Aaron Rubin & Ilan Rubin & Tom DeLonge.
Kiss & Tell was produced by Tom DeLonge & Aaron Rubin.
Angels & Airwaves released Kiss & Tell on Fri Aug 30 2019.
Tom DeLonge said
The beginning of the song is really an ode to the Beach Boys. It opens with three-part harmonies to create an introduction with multi-dimensionality. We wanted to create a sound that had electronic elements right alongside classic rock and pop-punk melodic structures.
