TLC LYRICS - Somethin' You Wanna Know

"Somethin' You Wanna Know"



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 discussion'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 suppose to do



[Chorus:]

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' atin't suppose to phase me

Yellin' at you for even startin' to belive

In any kind of that crap street yap you been receivin'

And what's so unfair

You been doggin' me out about matters unclear

You can't solve a problem it it's trapped inside your mind

It's a conversation blind



[Chorus]



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

Becasue 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 cause 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 yo don't you know that the story's been inflated



[Chorus]



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 that they tell you boy is just hearsay

You gotta 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)

They 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 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



[Chorus]
