I Don't Want To Hear It Anymore

(album: Introducing The Walker Brothers (aka Take It Easy) - 1965)

In my neighbourhood where folks don't live so good now
The rooms are small most the building made of wood
I hear the neighbours talking 'bout you and me
Yes I've heard most every word 'cause the talkins loud and the walls are much too thin

She don't really love him
Oh that's what I heard them say
She sure wasn't thinking of him today
I saw her in the courtyard say that girl in room one forty nine
Talking to a boy I've never seen before
And standing there together don't you know they looked so fine

No I don't want to hear it anymore
I don't want to hear it anymore

'Cause the talk just never ends and the heartache soon begins
The talk is so loud and the walls, they're much too thin

Lord ain't it sad, said the woman cross the hall
That when a nice boy like that falls in love
Hey, it's just too bad that he had to go and fall for a girl that doesn't care for him at all

No I don't wanna hear it anymore
I don't wanna hear it anymore
'Cause the talk just never ends and the heartache soon begins
Oh they talk so loud and the walls are much too thin
Oh I wish they wouldn't talk so loud and expose my heartache to the crowd
