Baby all the lights are turned on you Now you´re in the center of the stage Ev´rything revolves on what you do Ah, you are in your prime You´ve come of age
You can always have your way somehow ´Cause ev´rybody loves you now
You can walk away from your mistakes You can turn your back on what you do Just a little smile is all it takes And you can have your cake and eat it too Loneliness will get to you somehow But ev´rybody loves you now
Ah, they all want your white body And they await your reply Ah, but between you and me and the Staten Island ferry So do I
All the people want to know your name Soon there will be lines outside your door
Feelings do not matter in your game ´Cause nothing´s gonna touch you anymore So your life is only living anyhow And ev´rybody loves you now
Close your eyes when you don´t want to see And stay at home when you don´t want to go Only speak to those who will agree Yeah, and close your mind when you don´t want to know You have lost your innocence somehow But ev´rybody loves you now Ah, you know that nothin´ lasts forever And it´s all been done before Ah, but you ain´t got the time To go to Cold Spring Harbor no more
See how all the people gather ´round
Hey, isn´t it a thrill to see them all crawl Keep your eyes ahead and don´t look down Yeah, and lock yourself inside your sacred wall This is what you wanted, ain´t you proud ´Cause ev´rybody loves you now
