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
You 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
Anyway 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'll never get free, everybody wants you

Everybody knows you
Everybody snows you
Everybody needs you
Leads you, bleeds you

Nights of confusion
And impossible dreams
Days at the mirror
I'm 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

Everybody wants you
Everybody wants you
