[Chorus]
Human nature
Human nature
We wanna make sure
That we can figure out
If we get talked about

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna know
The latest in salacious family news
Honestly, I hate it, but
It can keep me amused

[Pre-Chorus]
Go on
Oh, no, she never
Let's get together
And talk it out

[Chorus]
Human nature
Human nature
We wanna make sure
That we can figure out
If we get talked about
[Verse 2]
You don't wanna talk
But if you're gonna gossip, make it good
If they had a chance to dish on you
You know they would

[Pre-Chorus]
You know
That office chatter
Tends not to flatter
And it's a shame
Although
It is beneath them
You'll grit your teeth when
You hear your name

[Chorus]
Human nature
Human nature
We wanna make sure
That we can figure out
If we get talked about

[Bridge]
You listen as they converse
And steel yourself for the worst
But nobody mentioned you at all
[Pre-Chorus]
And lo
Your world was shattered
You did not matter
Amongst your peers
A blow
That made you stronger
So you no longer
Prick up your ears

[Chorus]
Human nature
Human nature
We wanna make sure
That we get talked about
So we won't be left out

[Outro]
Human nature
