Lyrics:

I know that most folks really like you
They think you’re honest and generous too
But the few of us who really know you well
We all know that’s just not true

Most folks don’t know about the things you’ve done
known only to the neighbors and your wife
But all these things never do get talked about
So you can keep on living your charmed life

As long as good things are being said about you
Good things keep coming your way
It doesn’t matter if you act right
If they don’t know it’ll be alright
It’s all about what people have to say
It’s all about what people have to say

I know people have been talking ‘bout you
And saying how much you really care
I know if they knew these things about you
But they don’t, they’re all unaware

You have kept your true colors locked away
In print, on screen, in public light
Should those darkest colors surface
Those who love you would all take flight

As long as good things are being said about you
Good things keep coming your way
It’s not the way you live your life
Because the speculation's rife
It’s all about what people have to say
It’s all about what people have to say

Song Notes:

The title of this song appeared in fortune cookie during a recording session dinner break and we noticed how it didn't say that you're a good person, just that good things are being said. Since a fortune cookie said it, it must be the way the world works...
