Club Nouveau - Jealousy (instrumental) lyrics

I can't tell you why these things Continue to happen to me But some people get so jealous Of the smallest of all things I tried to help some friends To help themselves To get their lives intact They came out spreading rumours Now I have to come out spreading facts Let me tell how this started And where it all began I guess I was a fool to try and help My broken social friends They told me if I'd help them They'd be in debt for life But when I turned my back to get support They stabbed me with a knife I don't need jealousy (no) I don't want the bad talk around me I don't need jealousy (no) I don't want the bad talk around me You came out spreading rumours Because you were so jealous You didn't understand that We were on your side Tell my why not, fellas You let some people guide you In the wrong direction From the truth, you cannot hide So don't go look for no protection I didn't understand it then And you know I just can't now You know I tried to help you out And now it's me you're trying to clown But let me tell you, partner You won't come out ahead All this jealousy will do Is make you lose it all instead I don't need jealousy I don't want the bad talk around me I don't need jealousy I don't want the bad talk around me Jealous thoughts cause trouble Yapping all the time You know they're listening for rumours So that they can drop a dime They run from place to place Just telling half the story Because they're always Trying to down someone And take their fame and glory If it hasn't happened to you Just give yourself some time I think you know the symptoms When a jealous person drops a line I think I'll write a letter That sums it up the best I'll have to write it in big letters With my business, please don't mess, oh, no I don't need jealousy (I don't need no jealousy) I don't want the bad talk around me I don't need jealousy I don't want the bad talk around me I don't need jealousy I don't want the bad talk around me I don't need jealousy I don't want the bad talk around me I don't need, you don't need We don't need no jealousy I don't need, you don't need We don't need no jealousy I don't need, you don't need We don't need no jealousy I don't need, you don't need We don't need no jealousy I don't need jealousy I don't want the bad talk around me I don't need jealousy I don't want the bad talk around me
