People These Days - Count Basic

Verso 1:

What’s this I heard I’ve been told you weren’t real with me

And if I’d known I would’ve gone, I would have set you free

Don’t need you sticking around me

I don’t need your pity

Don’t need false compliments

As you can see, I’m self sufficient

No need to be worried

Refrão:

What’s the matter with people these days

Never really meaning what they say

All this double talk, crazy talk getting in the way

What’s the matter with people these days

Can’t believe a word they say

All this smiling and profiling

Won’t be lead astray

Verso 2:

And if I knew you weren’t worthy of my companionship

I’d draw the line I wouldn’t waste time

Wouldn’t let you treat me unkind

Don’t need you sticking around me

I don’t need your pity

Don’t need false compliments

As you can see, I’m self sufficient

No need to be worried

Refrão:

What’s the matter with people these days

Never really meaning what they say

All this double talk, crazy talk getting in the way

What’s the matter with people these days

Can’t believe a word they say

All this smiling and profiling

Won’t be lead astray
