  Lyrics to 'What About'
  

  What About
  by Janet Jackson
  
  Chorus:
  What about the times you lied to me
  What about the times you said no one would want me
  What about all the sh** you've done to me
  What about that
  What about that
  
  What about the times you yelled at me
  What about the times I cried
  You wouldn't even hold me
  What about those things
  What about that
  What about that
  
  I took a pause
  We walked along the beach
  What a moon lit night
  He held my hands in his
  He kissed me he said
  I wanna spend my life with you
  I want you for my wife
  Just then I thought
  
  And then a deep sigh
  He looked right into my eyes
  As he said
  I know I didn't say somethin' wrong
  I didn't have the courage to say
  But then I thought
  
  Repeat Chorus
  
  Oh
  
  Chorus 2:
  
  What about the times you hit my face
  What about the times you kept on when I said
  No more please
  What about those things
  What about that
  What about that oh
  What about the times you shamed me
  What about the times when you said you didn't f**k her
  She only gave you head
  What about that
  What about that
  
  Don't wanna live my life in misery
  Don't tell me you did it 'cause you love me
  I don't believe
  I'm sick and tired
  Your deceptive games
  Wonder where
  You have been
  I can't live life wondering
  
  My heart was poundin'
  But the time had come
  To stop lettin' my whisperin' heart control me
  And tellin' my screamin' mind what to do
  I looked him straight in the eye
  And then I said
  
  Repeat Chorus
  
  Repeat Chorus 2
  
  Repeat Chorus
  
  Repeat Chorus 2
