Lyrics I Don't Want To Hear It Anymore - Scott Walker

In my neighbourhood
Where folks don't live so good now
The rooms are small
Most the buildings made of wood
I hear the neighbours talkin' about you and me
Yes, I've heard most every word
'Cause the talkin's 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 thinkin' of him today
I saw her in the courtyard
Say that girl in room one forty nine
Talkin' to a boy I've never seen before
And standin' 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 who 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
Whoa, I wish they wouldn't talk so loud
And expose my heartache to the crowd
These walls around me are so thin
Sometimes I think they're movin' in
