Somethin you wanna know
Ask me boy
Ill tell you so
Dont you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin you wanna know

Yo left eye
I cant believe he fell for that rumor
All he had to do was come ask you

Sittin all alone cant think of nothin better to do
So yo I keeps callin you
Each discussions a little bit colder
Seems to me you givin two of those shoulders
Whatever it is and if its nothin
I wish that you would tell me somethin
Got me thinkin Im losin you
Yo so what am I suppose to do

Somethin you wanna know
Ask me boy
Ill tell you so
Dont you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin you wanna know
Ask me boy
Ill tell you so
You can talk to your girl
I wont lie to you baby

Scratchin up the phone goin crazy
You think it aint suppose to phase me
Yellin at you for even startin to belive
In any kind of that crap street yap you been receivin
And whats so unfair
You been doggin me out about matters unclear
You cant solve a problem it its trapped inside your mind
Its a conversation blind

Hook

You know you shouldnt fall for everything that they tell you
Unless you get it straight from the horses mouth (ah)
You know that everything they tell you boy is just hearsay
You gotta be careful when the rumors out

True enough now you know if I were to pick up
A piece of that he say she say stuff
Think about it
I would doubt it as to callin a bluff
But unlike you I wouldnt breaka da rules
By jumpin into concluse
Id eat a steak and potato while thinkin it over later
Leave a tip two quarters and a condom for the waiter
What to do
Nows the time I decided to bring it on back to you
So we can talk it through and through
Becasue it aint nothin better than talkin to me
When you wanna know somethin
Than havin to get a piece of info from who knows
Im gettin fed up cause yo cuz
Words become a quote or somethin better like a story
Its far from okey doke close to fiction
Half is true but then the other is a conviction
So Im blamed with an infliction
From which others have created
Then have socially debated
So yo dont you know that the storys been inflated

You know you shouldnt fall for everything that they tell you
Unless you get it straight from the horses mouth (ah)
You know that everything they tell you boy is just hearsay
You gotta be careful when the rumors out

You can talk to me, you can talk to me
If its somethin you wanna know (something you wanna know)
They just ask me baby
Ooh so tenderly (so tenderly)
Ill tell you what you wanna hear (Ill tell you somethin)
You can talk to your girl
I wont lie to you baby

Remember dont let anyone come between you
With he say she say
Yeah you know those words
And this advice is never to be forgotten
That misery loves company (Ill tell you so)
And this special shot goes out to all those
(you can talk to your girl)
(I wont lie to you baby)
Who are in love
Peace
