Everybody Knows

If everybody knows this is nowhere
What do you suppose we ought to do
Stay, go, but everybody knows
Everywhere is nowhere when you’re blue

Everybody makes some bad decisions
I imagine maybe quite a few
Change, grow, but everybody knows
You must do the thing you think you cannot do

Ever worry ‘bout this wounded world we live in
Ever worry things are never going to change
Change you, that’s all that you can do
And pray that everybody knows to do the same

When its time to go I hope I go down swinging
But I’ll probably end up just like all the rest
Fat, broke, the butt of every joke
But everybody’s going to know that I gave it my best

Since everybody knows this is nowhere
Here’s what I propose we ought to do
Live large and thank our lucky stars
I thank mine for being here with you
And everybody knows who knows me this is true
