Tlc Somethin You Wanna Know Lyrics

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. Huh.
Yo Left Eye, I can't believe he fell for that rumor.
All he had to do is 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're givin' me two of these shoulders.
Whatever it is and if it's nothin',
I wish that you would tell me somethin'.
Got me thinkin' I'm losin' you,
So yo, 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 somethin'.
You can talk to your girl.
I won't lie to you, baby.

Scratchin' up the phone goin' crazy,
You think it ain't supposed to phase me
Yellin' at you for even startin' to believe
In any kind of that street crap yap you've been receivin'.
And what's so unfair,
You've been doggin' me out about matters unclear.
You can't solve a problem if its' trapped inside your mind.
It's a conversation blind.

Somethin' you wanna know, (If you really wanna know,)
Ask me, boy. (I'm the one who knows.)
I'll tell you so. (Oh, baby, talk to me.)
Don't you talk to the world.
You can talk to me, baby.
Somethin' you wanna know, (No, baby.)
Ask me, boy.
I'll tell you somethin'.
You can talk to your girl.
I won't lie to you, baby.

You know you shouldn't fall for anything that they tell you
Unless you get it straight from the horse's mouth.
Ahhh, ah.
You know that everything that they tell you is just hearsay.
You got to be careful when the rumor's out.

True enough, now I know if I were to pick up a piece of that he said-she said stuff, think about it.
I would doubt it as to callin' a bluff.
But unlike you, I wouldn't break betta 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 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 who knows,
I'm gettin' fed up, yo, 'cause words become a quote or somethin' better like a story.
It's far from hunky 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 that have socially debated.
So don't you know that the story's been inflated.

Somethin' you wanna know, (Ohhhhh, oh, oh, oh.)
Ask me, boy. (If you wanna know.)
I'll tell you so.
Don't you talk to the world. (Oh, tell me, yeah.)
You can talk to me, baby.
Somethin' you wanna know,
Ask me, boy.
I'll tell you somethin'.
You can talk to your girl.
I won't lie to you, baby.

You know you shouldn't fall for anything that they tell you, oooh,
Unless you get it straight from the horse's mouth.
Hey.
You know that everything that they tell you 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. (Somethin' you wanna know)
Then just ask me, baby.
Oooh, so tenderly, (So tenderly)
I'll tell you what I 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 said-she said.
Yeah, you know the words.
And this advice is only to be taken that misery loves company.
(I'll tell you so. You can talk to your girl.)
(I won't lie to you, baby.)
And this special shot goes out to all those who are in love.

(Somethin' you wanna know,) Peace.
Ask me, boy.
I'll tell you so.
Don't you talk to the world. (Oh, tell me, yeah.)
You can talk to your baby.
Somethin' you wanna know,
Ask me, boy.
I'll tell you somethin'.
You can talk to your girl.
I won't lie to you, baby.

Is there somethin' you...(Somethin' you wanna know)
