Song lyrics

[Verse 1:]
I heard he spent five hundred pounds on jeans,
Goes to the gym at least six times a week,
Wears both shoes with no socks on his feet,
And I hear he's on a new diet and watches what he eats.
He's got his eyebrows plucked and his asshole bleached,
Owns every single Ministry CD,
Tribal tattoos and he don't know what it means,
But I heard he makes you happy, so that's fine by me.
But still, I'm just keeping it real,
Still looking at your Instagram, and I'll be creeping a lil',
I'll be trying not to double tap, from way back
'Cause I know that's where the trouble's at.
Let me remind you of the days when
You used to hold my hand,
And when we sipped champagne outta cider cans,
I guess if you were Lois Lane, I wasn't Superman,
Just a young boy tryna be loved,
So let me give it to ya.

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna know about your new man
'Cause if it was meant to be,
You wouldn't be calling me up tryna ...
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me,
I don't wanna know about your new man,
We'll get there eventually,
I know you're missing all this kind of love,
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me.

[Verse 2:]
Your new man rents a house in the 'burb,
And wears a man bag on his shoulder, but I call it a purse,
Every year, he goes to Málaga with all the fellas,
Drinks beer, but has a six pack, I'm kinda jealous.
He wears sunglasses indoors, in winter, at nighttime,
And every time a rap song comes on, he makes a gang sign,
Says, "Cheya! Boy, dem light up di room!”
But enough about him, girl, let's talk about you.
You were the type of girl who sat beside the water reading,
Eating a packet of the crisp, but you will never find you cheating,
Now you're eating kale, hitting the gym,
Keepin' up with Kylie and Kim,
In the back of the club, kissing a boy that ain't him.
Okay, you need to be alone,
And if you wanna talk about it, you can call my phone,
I just thought I would tell you, 'cause you oughta know
You're still a young girl tryna be loved,
So let me give it to ya.

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna know about your new man
'Cause if it was meant to be,
You wouldn't be calling me up tryna ...
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me,
I don't wanna know about your new man,
We'll get there eventually,
I know you're missing all this kind of love,
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me.

[Bridge:]
Baby, I'm not tryna ruin your week,
But you act so differently
When you're with him, I know you're lonely.
Please, remember you're still free
To make the choice and leave.
Don't call me up, you need to show me.

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna know about your new man
'Cause if it was meant to be,
You wouldn't be calling me up tryna ...
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me,
I don't wanna know about your new man,
We'll get there eventually,
I know you're missing all this kind of love,
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me.
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about,
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about,
I don't wanna know about your new man.
