Gimme some straight talk, straight talk -- and hold the sugar please

Straight talk, straight talk -- sounds plenty sweet to me

Don't talk to me in circles in some mumbo-jumbo jive

Gimme just straight talk, straight talk and we're gonna be alright

'cause i like to know just where i stand, i don't like guessing games

And i hate a bunch of gibberish, so just spit it out real plain

Don't use big educated words from your bs degree

Straight talk, straight talk -- don't try b.s.-ing me



Straight talk, straight talk -- turn loose and let it go

You can tell me anything -- just like on oprah's show

Just tell me how you really feel, be on the up and up

With questions i can understand -- for answers you can trust



Pick up the 'phone, you're not alone -- we've all got something to say

So listen in and listen up -- we'll find a better way

With honesty and common sense, it's really hard to miss

Straight talk, straight talk -- just tellin' it like it is



Straight talk, straight talk -- there's nothing like the truth

Just tell me all your troubles -- pretend i'm donahue

So don't be shy, 'cause we can talk -- you know you've got a friend

Call me, call me -- for simple straight talkin'



What's cookin', america?



Straight talk, straight talk

Straight talk, straight talk



So some on let's talk turkey, just straight and to the point

About passions, about problems, about noses out of joint

Now i want you all to know i care and i do understand

And hey, thanks for lending me and ear out there in radioland



Give me some straight talk, straight talk -- don't sugar coat it please

Straight talk, straight talk -- sounds sweet enough to me

But don't talk to me in circles, in your mumbo-jumbo jive

Straight talk, straight talk -- and we're gonna be alright

Straight talk, straight talk -- makes plenty sense to me

Don't talk to me in circles, in your mumbo-jumbo jive

Gimme just straight talk, straight talk -- and we're gonna be alright

Gimme just straight talk, straight talk -- and we're gonna be alright
