Lady Gaga's Leaked 'Judas' Lyrics Aren't Quite Real

While some of the lines are legit, others are fabricated, MTV News has learned.

It looks like someone is trying to fool Little Monsters everywhere by posting incorrect lyrics online for Lady Gaga's "Judas." Various versions of lyrics reportedly from the track hit the Internet, and it appears that someone used Gaga's recent Google interview as inspiration.

So far, the only real lyrics from the song are: "When he comes to me, I am ready/ I'll wash his feet with my hair if he needs/ Forgive him when his tongue lies through his brain/ Even after three times, he betrays me/ I'll bring him down, a king with no crown." Gaga previously shared an additional line from the song on Twitter, writing, "I'm just a Holy Fool, oh baby he's so cruel, but I'm still in love with Judas, baby."

From there, someone took all those real lyrics and crafted their own version of the song, which was co-produced by RedOne and the Mother Monster herself. For now, until "Judas" officially drops, fans at least have Gaga's confessions about the track.

"You have to look into what is haunting you and you need to look into forgiving yourself in order to move on," she said about the song, which will be the second single from Born This Way.. "And it's really fun to dance to and sounds like it could be a pop Priest record."

Gaga and her creative director, Laurieann Gibson, will co-direct the video, and Gibson seemed excited about the clip when she spoke to MTV News. " 'Judas' is exciting for me because we had this amazing artistic approach to 'Born This Way,' and I'm so excited for how riveting, energetic and electric the record is, something really phenomenal," Gibson said. "So, visually, the dance, the costuming, the idea of how big we're trying to go, [it's] going to be a roller-coaster ride."

Khloe & Lamar: Another Kardashian Triumph?

Khloe & Lamar: Another Kardashian Triumph?

It's not easy keeping up with the Kardashians. Their original show premiered less than four years ago, and it has already launched two spin-offs, Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami and Kourtney and Kim Take New York. And now a third has arrived: Khloé & Lamar (premiering Sunday, April 10, at 10 p.m. ET on E!) will follow the lives of Khloé, the youngest Kardashian sister, and her husband, L.A. Laker Lamar Odom, as they settle into married life.

"This is what happens when you get married in 30 days," Kardashian says in this preview clip, while Odom playfully pretends to whip her in bed. Straight out of the gate, the pair pokes fun at the public's intial perceptions about their union: It happened too fast. It couldn't possibly be real. It must be a publicity stunt.

But a year-and-a-half later (which counts as 10 years in Hollywood marriage time), the pair are still together and starring in their own reality show.

"It was hard for a lot of people to accept," Odom told Playboy in February. "Some people who don't understand see it from a view of 'You've got to watch out. She's trying to get (your money).' But she's got her own." The Kardashian sisters own and operate a clothing boutique called D-A-S-H, with outposts in three cities. They also have lines of jewelry, clothing, fragrance and sunless tanners, and, of course, their TV shows. "One of the most beautiful things about her is that she understands how to make her own way in life," Odom said. "This is one of the reasons our connection is so strong."

And based on the extended preview, this union is no publicity stunt. Whether the marriage will last is anyone's guess, but they are certainly a couple for the time being! The show features lots of PDA, family drama (especially with Odom's father), friend issues (sparks of jealousy fly between Kardashian and Odom's best pal, Jamie Sangourthai) and talk about getting pregnant (though Khloé has recently said that she's still trying).

The show has a slightly different feel from the previous Kardashian outings, as it should. Odom is not a reality star, and he doesn't behave like one. Some of the trumped-up drama, which comes so naturally to Kardashian, doesn't come to its screaming, clawing fruition -- because Odom's not a hysteric. But the Kardashian family is an intricate part of Khloe's life, and therefore will be an intricate part of this show, too. And where they go, drama follows.
