Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
What'd you hear this time?
Go on and speak your mind
I know somebody's lyin'
It's always somethin'
Her auntie told your cousin
Then all your homies jumped in
And now, the whole hood's buzzin'
[Verse 2]
The he said, she said
Don't let it get in ya head
Baby, don't say
Somethin' that you will regret
I'm on your team
It's us against them, you'll see
Hey, we ain't gon' stop
They just want what we got
[Chorus]
The more they talk about our love
The more they make it obvious
The more they seem so envious
Hey, yeah
How can they talk about our love
They don't know
When they don't know one thing about us?
And then they just runnin' they mouths, so
All we do is tune them out
[Verse 3]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I swear they got some nerve
Spreading what they heard
I can't give them no words
I can't be concerned with all that talk
I won't be involved, that's my word
[Verse 4]
See, I'm not the one
They got me confused
They got me messed up
Don't you think I've had enough?
When it comes to what we do
All that matters is us two
Don't pay them no mind
We just gon' show and prove
[Chorus]
The more they talk about our love
Hey
The more they make it obvious
The more they seem so envious
Baby
How can they talk about our love
Why you talkin' about me? Yeah
When they don't know one thing about us?
And then they just runnin' they mouths, so
All we do is tune them out
[Verse 5]
Kanye
Uh, here's a couple of things I can't honor, man
How you listen to a girl that still wanna man?
Tell me the truth, is that a man or Juwanna Mann?
I'm wonderin', why she read' to go like Wanda, then
When we met, you was a V like Madonna, man
Now you in the field, runnin' plays like Donovan
McNabb before you get in a cab
I'll trade in my cab just to take it back to last summer, man
You don't remember when you was my sweetest?
You don't remember, I called you Reese's Pieces
'Cause it's no wrong way to do you know what
She turned around, giggled, said, "You so nuts"
But nowadays, we actin' way too grown up
Like how ya ex-girl get that new number?
The rumours was so numerous
For stickin' by me, I had to give you two thumbs up, and that's why
[Chorus]
The more they talk about our love
The more they make it obvious
The more they seem so envious
How can they talk about our love
People shouldn't talk about us
When they don't know one thing about us?
No
And then they just runnin' they mouths, so
Woo
All we do is tune them out
[Outro]
Go on, oh
The more they talk about our love
Tune it out, baby
The more they make it obvious
The more they seem so envious
Woo, woo, hey
How can they talk about our love
Let's not talk about it, baby
When they don't know one thing about us?
And then they just runnin' they mouths, so
All we do is tune them out
I don't wanna hear it no more
