Everybody Wants You

You see 'em comin'

At you every night

Strung on pretension

They fall for you at first sight

You know their business

You think it's a bore

They make you restless

It's nothin' you ain't seen before

Get around town

Spend your time on the run

You never let down

Say you do it for fun

Never miss a play

Though you make quite a few

You give it all away

Everybody wants you

You crave attention

You can never say "no"

Throw your affections

Any way the wind blows

You always make it

You're on top of the scene

You sell the copy

Like the cover of a magazine

Puttin' on the eyes

'Til there's nobody else

You never realize

What you do to yourself

The things that they see

Make the daily reviews

You never get free

Everybody wants you

Everybody knows you

Everybody snows you

Everybody leads you

Needs you, bleeds you

Nights of confusion

And impossible dreams

Days at the mirror

Patchin' up around the seams

You got your glory

You paid for it all

You take your pension

In loneliness and alcohol

Say goodbye

To conventional ways

You can't escape the hours

You lose track of the days

The more you understand

Seems the more like you do

You never get away

Everybody wants you
