Somethin’ You Wanna Know

Lyrics

[Intro: Chilli, T-Boz, Left-Eye, Chilli] 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 me [Verse 1: Left-Eye] 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: Chilli, T-Boz, Left-Eye] 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 [Verse 2: Left Eye] 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've been receivin' And what's so unfair You been doggin' me out about matters unclear You can't solve a problem if it's trapped inside ya mind It's a conversation blind [Chorus: Chilli, T-Boz, Left-Eye, (Chilli)] Somethin' you wanna know (If you really wanna know) Ask me, boy (I'm the one who knows) I'll tell you so (Oh yeah) So just talk to the world (Talk to me) You can talk to me baby Somethin' you wanna know (Know, baby) Ask me, boy I'll tell you so You can talk to your girl I won't lie to you, baby [Bridge: Chilli] 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 [Verse 3: Left-Eye] 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 'cause yo 'cause Words become a quote or somethin' better like a story It's far from honkey dory, 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: Chilli, T-Boz, Left-Eye, (Chilli)] Somethin' you wanna know (Oh) Ask me, boy (Oh) I'll tell you so (Oh) Don't you talk to the world (Talk to me, yeah) 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 [Bridge 1: Chilli, (T-Boz)] 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 [Breakdown: T-Boz] 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 so) You can talk to your girl I won't lie to you, baby [Bridge 2: T-Boz] 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: Chilli, T-Boz, Left-Eye] Somethin' you wanna know Ask me, boy I'll tell you so Don't you talk to the world (Talk to me) You can talk to me, baby (Yeah) 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 Somethin' you wanna know If there's somethin' you Somethin' you wanna know (Oh) Don't you talk to the world (Baby, tell me) You can talk to me, baby Somethin' you wanna know If there's somethin' you Somethin' you wanna know (Oh) You can talk to your girl I won't lie to you, baby Somethin' you Ooh, somethin' you Somethin' you wanna know Don't you talk to the world You can talk to me, baby Somethin' you
