EVERYBODY NOW
BY EDGE OF LA
THE BOYS ARE LINING UP
OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR
SINCE THE NEWS GOT OUT
THAT YOU WEREN’T WITH ME ANYMORE
THE BOYS ARE DRESSED AND READY
TO IMPRESS
THAT IT IS TIME FOR YOU
TO MAKE A BRAND NEW START WITH SOMEONE NEW.
THEY THINK THEY HAVE A CHANCE WITH YOU SOMEHOW
THAT’S EVERYBODY, EVERYBODY NOW
THAT’S EVERYBODY NOW
AND THEY’RE JUST LIKE I WAS YESTERDAY
AND I STAND HERE WONDERING HOW
YOU COULD THROW MY LOVE AWAY
THE BOYS ARE LINING UP
TO PLAY THE PART
AND THEY DON’T GIVE A DAMN
THAT ONE DAY YOU MIGHT JUST BREAK THEIR HEART
THEY CROSS THEMSELVES
WHILE THEY’RE PRAYING FOR THE CHANCE
BUT THEY’RE ONLY BOYS
AND YOU KNOW THEY’RE ITCHING IN THEIR PANTS
THEY THINK THEY HAVE A CHANCE WITH YOU SOMEHOW
THAT’S EVERYBODY, EVERYBODY NOW
THAT’S EVERYBODY NOW
AND THEY’RE JUST LIKE I WAS YESTERDAY
AND I STAND HERE WONDERING HOW
YOU COULD THROW MY LOVE AWAY
I TOOK YOU FOR YOUR WORD
IF I KNEW THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW
I FINALLY SEE I NEVER WANNA BE LIKE
EVERYBODY NOW
EVERYBODY NOW

everybody now lyrics
everybody now
- noah mclaughlin
now listen to someone who knows everybody
bring my vision to the crowd
wash that stain from the eyes of everybody
now take me a notch down
never mind the bright lights from everybody
lights that used to be so loud
gotta get away from everybody now
now tap those keys till they bleed like everybody
& break their hearts when they cry
listen to no one while hearing everybody
now put your hand in mine
never mind the nonsense from everybody
this trip is number nine
gotta get away from everybody now

Everybody Now by Andy Balham inspired by Krissy P
It's all too easy these days
To drop your head and sigh
Throw your hands up throw the towel in
You only live to die
Leisure society nightmare
Hundred ways to get stressed out
But you're not like other people
And it's good to be left out...
Chorus
Don't you be like everybody these days
Don't you be like everybody now
You can be so much brighter, let the light shine inside ya
And let it blind everybody now
Stand out from the in-crowd
Walk to the beat of your own drum
See the best side, see what's inside
See what they become
People care too much
Of what others just might think
You have the strength to be yourself
Can't let the others win...
Chorus
I count myself so lucky
I thank the hand of fate
I breath in the fresh air
That follows in your wake, so...
Chorus x 2

Everybody Now by Ants (Invisible)
I heard a lot about it from a long lost friend
Who missed the rain
And I heard a lot about it from the station men
Who saved the train
I'll tell you all about it when we meet again
Some windy day
I don't know all about it so I won't pretend
On what to say
But if you choose you're bound to lose your way
But I say (Hey yeah)
Yes I say (Hey yeah)
Hear me say (Hey yeah)
One more time now (Hey yeah)
The funny thing about it is it isn't hard
To leave the rain
But the other thing about it is it isn't far
So don't miss the train
Cause if you lose you'll never choose again
(Hey yeah)
But I say (Hey yeah)
Yes I say (Hey yeah)
One more time now (Hey yeah)
Sometimes it only wants to be found
Sometimes it simply wants to be found
Sometimes it's really got to be found
And we can do better, yeah
What do we know?
What do we know?
(Hey yeah)
Everybody now
Everybody now etc.
(Hey yeah)
You got your personal hell (Hey yeah)
But you got to do well (Hey yeah)
You got your blood on the line (Hey yeah)
No one wants to be left here
No one wants to be lonely
Go where everyone else goes
You won't ever be lonely
(Hey yeah)
You got your personal hell (Hey yeah)
But you got to do well (Hey yeah)
You got your blood on the line (Hey yeah)
No one wants to be backward
No one wants to be outcast
Do what everyone else does
You won't ever be outcast
You got to do what everybody got to do but everybody says you got to do your thing enough to make a man go crazy everybody goin' crazy everybody now
