Cover art for Somebody Told Me lyrics by Killers, The

Option A is a dead giveaway. Option B is my own relative thoughts. A: It's likely about the struggles of making a song. "Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game," with the game being the process of writing and recording the song. "Heaven ain't close in a place like this" might symbolize how recording is like Hell. "Don't blink or you might miss" could mean how you might screw up a song track, regardless of the amount of time recorded.

B: I thought it was about high school drama. The girl cheats on a man with another man "somebody told me you had a boyfriend that looked like a girlfriend that I had in February of last year".
