Brandy - The Joneses Songtexte

He just copped a Bentley
Now's there's jealousy and envy
In your eyes when there shouldn't be
Cause he worked hard for his shit, so he should be able to get
Whatever he see fit (whatever)

How's you gon' live your life based around
What someone else is doing now
Too much free time on your hands
Concerned about who's doing
What, when, where and for how long
So you can go and jump right on the phone (calling)
You ain't getting paid to lose the ball
That's why you keep coming up short

When you gonna get enough of trying to keep up up with the Joneses
So concerned about what they do
When you should just do you
When you gonna get enough of trying to keep up up with the Joneses
So concerned about what they do
When you should just do you

She just got a new gig
Making so much paper it's stupid
And you question how she do it
Well you too could get paper if you just stop being a hater
Value on and get your win up

How's you gon' live your life based around
What someone else is doing now
Too much free time on your hands
Concerned about who's doing
What, when, where and for how long
So you can go and jump right on the phone (calling)
You ain't getting paid to lose the ball
That's why you keep coming up short

When you gonna get enough of trying to keep up up with the Joneses
So concerned about what they do
When you should just do you
When you gonna get enough of trying to keep up up with the Joneses
So concerned about what they do
When you should just do you

When are you ever gonna learn
Sometimes you gotta wait your turn
Cause everyone can't go through the door at the same time
Girl yo' gonna drive yourself insane
Tryin' stay up on everything that have nothing to do with you

One day.....

When you gonna get enough of trying to keep up up with the Joneses
So concerned about what they do
When you should just do you
When you gonna get enough of trying to keep up up with the Joneses
So concerned about what they do
When you should just do you
