People gonna talk about the things you do,
they`re gonna talk, be it a lie or truth.
Night and day, day or night,
they`re gonna talk, be it wrong or right.
People gonna talk about you, anyway;
They`re gonna talk, no matter what you say.
Night or day, day or night,
They`re gonna talk, be it wrong or right.
Seems they`ve just got to yakety, yakety, yak.
Though they know best not to,
the minute you turn your back.
People gonna talk until they`re satisfied;
They`re gonna talk until they make you cry.
Near or far, here and now,
They`re gonna talk, `cause that`s how people are.
