What's news to you
What's news to you, it ain't news to me
And what's blue to you, it ain't blue to me
It ain't blue to me
It ain't new to me
Hurt me, then tell me, "Man up"
Ask me questions then don't care about the answers
Hurt me, hurt me, oh
Do you deserve me? No way
But can I let you go to anybody?
Never in a million (lifetimes)
But my love just reached the ceiling
What's news to you, it ain't news to me
What's news to you
What's news to you, it ain't news to me
And what's blue to you, it ain't blue to me (blue to me)
It ain't blue to me
It ain't new to me
Deep down, I want out
Deep down, I feel tied down
Sometimes it's my own
Doing that makes things
Come to fruition, babe
Do you deserve me? No way
Can I let you go to anybody?
Never in a million (lifetimes)
But my love just reached the ceiling tonight
What's news to you, it ain't news to me
What's news to you
What's news to you, it ain't news to me
And what's blue to you, it ain't blue to me (blue to me)
It ain't blue to me
It ain't new to me
What's news to you, it ain't news to me
What's news to you
What's news to you, it ain't news to me
And what's blue to you, it ain't blue to me (blue to me)
It ain't blue to me
It ain't new to me
Used to your bad side, baby
I got used to your bad side, baby
I got used to your bad side, baby, oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
You got a side that nobody's seen yet
You got a volume nobody's heard
Promised me something, not with your words
You told me there's nobody else
But I see different
And I know different (different)
I seen different
I know
I know (I, I)
I know
Yeah, I know, I know (ah)
Used to your bad side, baby
I got used to your bad side, baby
I got used to your bad side, baby
The lyrics of The News by PARTYNEXTDOOR paints a picture of a relationship where one partner is withholding information from the other. The opening lines, "What's news to you, it ain't news to me, What's blue to you, it ain't blue to me," suggest that the singer is aware of something that their partner is not, and the partner is oblivious to something that the singer already knows. The line "Hurt me, then tell me 'man up', Hurt me, then tell me 'stand up'," indicates that the singer is being emotionally hurt by their partner but is being told to toughen up while their partner continues to hurt them.
In the chorus, the singer questions their partner's fidelity, wondering if they deserve to be with them. They express their devotion, saying that they would never let them go to anybody else, but at the same time, they acknowledge the limitations of their partner's love, stating that it has reached a ceiling. The second verse shows that the singer feels trapped in the relationship, feeling tied down and struggling to come to terms with the reality of their partner's character. The closing lines, "You got a side that nobody's seen yet, You got a volume nobody's heard, Promised me something, not with your words, You told me there's nobody else But I see different," imply that the singer has observed their partner's true nature and knows that they are not who they say they are.

And I know different (different)
And I am aware that it is otherwise
Used to your bad side, baby
I am accustomed to your negative qualities, baby
