Some people eat chicken with their fingers
Some people use a fork and a knife
Some people are sucking on a silver spoon
And never ate a chicken in their life
So people look better in the daytime
Some look better at night
But everybody loves, everybody hurts
Everybody has a touch of weltschmerz
Everybody laughs, everybody sneezes
Everybody fries and everybody freezes
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Is everybody else
Some people want to guarantee a freedom
Some people want to take one away
Some say “We the People,” that’s the government
And some say, “The government, they…”
Some people are walking on the left wing
Some are sliding off the right
But everybody loves, everybody hurts
Everybody has a touch of weltschmerz
Everybody laughs, everybody sneezes
Everybody fries and everybody freezes
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Is everybody else
And everybody everywhere
Lesser and great
Has a common denomin-
Nator
Some people look up and see the ceiling
Some people look up and see God
Some people look forward to a paradise
And some are looking forward to the sod
A lot of people looking for enlightenment
Some are just trying to find the light
But everybody loves, everybody hurts
Everybody has a touch of weltschmerz
Everybody laughs, everybody sneezes
Everybody fries and everybody freezes
And everybody sleeps, everybody breathes
Everybody starts with no teeth and teethes
Everybody eats, everybody cries
And identifies with the Good Guys
And everybody’s bad, everybody’s good
Everybody wants to be understood
Everybody falls, everybody rises
Everybody on some lever realizes
That everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Is everybody else
Some people use a fork and a knife
Some people are sucking on a silver spoon
And never ate a chicken in their life
So people look better in the daytime
Some look better at night
But everybody loves, everybody hurts
Everybody has a touch of weltschmerz
Everybody laughs, everybody sneezes
Everybody fries and everybody freezes
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Is everybody else
Some people want to guarantee a freedom
Some people want to take one away
Some say “We the People,” that’s the government
And some say, “The government, they…”
Some people are walking on the left wing
Some are sliding off the right
But everybody loves, everybody hurts
Everybody has a touch of weltschmerz
Everybody laughs, everybody sneezes
Everybody fries and everybody freezes
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody
