In my neighbourhood
We don`t live so good
The rooms are small
And the buildings made of wood
I hear the neighbours talking `bout you and me
I guess I heard it all
`Cause the talk is loud
And the walls are much too thin
He don`t really love her
That`s what I heard them say
He sure wasn`t thinking of her today, oh no
(He wasn`t thinking of her today)
I saw them in the front yard
Said the boy in room 149
He was talking to a girl I`ve never seen before
And standing there together, oh they looked so good
I don`t want to hear it anymore
(I don`t want to hear it)
I don`t want to hear it anymore
(Anymore)
`Cause the talk just never ends
And the heartache soon begins
The talk is so loud
And the walls are much too thin
Ain`t it sad, said the woman down the hall
That when a nice girl falls in love
Ain`t it just too bad that she had to fall
For a boy who doesn`t care for her at all?
(It`s so sad)
I don`t want to hear it anymore
(I don`t want to hear it)
I just can`t stand to hear it anymore
(Anymore)
`Cause the talk just never ends
And the heartache soon begins
The talk is so loud
And the walls are much too thin
I don`t want to hear it anymore
(Can`t stand to hear it)
(Don`t want to hear it)
I just can`t stand to hear it anymore
(Don`t talk about it)
(Can`t stand to hear it)
Oh, baby, baby
I just can`t stand
