Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
Don´t you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin´ you wanna know

Yo Left Eye
I can´t believe he fell for that rumor
All he had to do was come ask you

Sittin´ all alone can´t think of nothin´ better to do
So yo I keeps callin´ you
Each disscussion´s a little bit colder
Seems to me you givin´ two of those shoulders
Whatever it is and if it´s nothin´
I wish that you would tell me somethin´
Got me thinkin´ I´m losin´ you
Yo so what am I supposed to do

Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
Don´t you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
You can talk to your girl
I won´t lie to you baby

Scratchin´ up the phone goin´ crazy
You think it ain´t suppose to phase me
Yellin´ at you for even startin´ to believe
In any kind of that crap street yap you been receivin´
And what´s so unfare
You been doggin´ me out about matters unclear
You can´t solve a problem if it´s trapped inside your mind
It´s a conversation blind

Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
Don´t you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
You can talk to your girl
I won´t lie to you baby

You know you shouldn´t fall for everything that they tell you
Unless you get it straight from the horse´s mouth (ah)
You know that everything they tell you boy is just hearsay
You gotta be careful when the rumor´s 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 wouldn´t breaka da rules
By jumpin´ into concluse
I´d eat a steak and potato while thinkin´ it over later
Leave a tip two quarters and a condom for the waiter
What to do
Now´s the time I decided to bring it on back to you
So we can talk it through and through
Because it ain´t nothin´ better than talkin´ to me
When you wanna know somethin´
Than havin´ to get a piece of info from who knows
I´m gettin´ fed up yo cuz
Words become a quote or somethin´ better like a story
It´s far from okey doke close to fiction
Half is true but then the other is a conviction
So I´m blamed with an infliction
From which others have created
Then have socially debated
So you don´t you know that the story´s been inflated

Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
Don´t you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
You can talk to your girl
I won´t lie to you baby

You know you shouldn´t fall for everything that they tell you
Unless you get it straight from the horse´s mouth (hey)
You know that everything they tell you boy is just hearsay
You got to be careful (careful) when the rumor´s out

You can talk to me, you can talk to me
If it´s somethin´ you wanna know (something you wanna know)
Then just ask me baby
Ooh so tenderly (so tenderly)
I´ll tell you what you wanna hear (I´ll tell you somethin´)
You can talk to your girl
I won´t lie to you baby

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

Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
Don´t you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin´ you wanna know
Ask me boy
I´ll tell you so
You can talk to your girl
I won´t lie to you baby
