Criticize Lyrics
[Verse 1: Alexander O'Neal]
Can't you find something else to talk about?
Is this song the only one you sing?
Makes you look better when you put things down
Who values your opinion?
[Pre-Chorus: Alexander O'Neal]
Don't criticize my friends
Criticize my ideas
Don't criticize my lifestyle
I'm fed up 'cause all you wanna do is criticize
[Chorus: Lisa Keith, Alexander O'Neal]
Don't just close your mind
Ooh, ooh (Criticize, yeah)
You don't realize (All you wanna do is criticize)
I just want what is right
Still you say
Criticize
[Verse 2: Alexander O'Neal]
Now can we start this over?
'Cause your conversation ain't right
We can make our love stronger
You don't have to think twice
[Pre-Chorus: Alexander O'Neal]
Don't criticize my friends
Criticize my ideas
Don't criticize my lifestyle
I'm fed up 'cause all you wanna do is criticize
[Chorus: Lisa Keith, Alexander O'Neal]
Don't just close your mind
Ooh, ooh (Criticize, yeah)
You don't realize (All you wanna do is criticize)
I just want what is right
Still you say
Criticize
Don't just close your mind
(All you wanna do is criticize)
Ooh, ooh (Criticize, yeah)
You don't realize (All you wanna do is criticize)
I just want what is right
Still you say
Criticize
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus: Alexander O'Neal]
Don't criticize my motive
Criticize my feeling
Don't criticize my business
I'm fed up 'cause all you wanna do is criticize
[Chorus: Lisa Keith, Alexander O'Neal]
Don't just close your mind
Ooh, ooh (Criticize, yeah)
You don't realize (All you wanna do is criticize)
I just want what is right
Still you say
Criticize (Criticize, yeah)
Don't just close your mind
(All you wanna do is criticize)
Ooh, ooh (Criticize, yeah)
You don't realize (All you wanna do is criticize)
I just want what is right
Still you say
Criticize
[Outro: Alexander O'Neal, Lisa Keith]
Ooh-wee, you and me, yeah
Gotta be your man
Stand beside me, baby
Don't you go walking out that door
No, no, no, no, baby
(Don't just close your mind)
Baby, don't criticize
(Ooh, ooh)
Oh, criticize me
(You don't realize)
Ooh-wee, baby, gotta have your love
I just want what is right
Still you say
Criticize
Don't just close your mind
Ooh, ooh
You don't realize
