Everyone that I know
Thinks they're
Losing their beauty
Everyone that I know
Thinks nobody is listening
Everyone that I know
Is just so overwhelmed
You know?

Everyone that I know
Hates the government
And nobody that I know
Says they voted for them
Everyone that I know
Is working at least two jobs
And training a machine
To take them away

When I'm in the street and
Sat down to eat my lunch
If someone points skyward
Everyone starts looking up

Somebody I know
Got the news from the doctor
Nobody I know
Wants that kind of news
Somebody I know
Waits in the light of their phone
For word of the cousins
Lost in a war they did not choose

When I was in the city
Waiting for cars to pass
Someone pointed skyward
And everyone started looking up

Then someone
Clutched their breast pocket and
Fell face down to the ground
And everyone I'd never met
Gathered in to help

Everyone that I know
Thinks they're
Losing their beauty
If ever anyone should ask
I just tell them no.
