Everybody's out on the run tonight but there's no place left to hide

And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burning coal
Pouring off of every page
Like it was written in my soul from me to you.......
Tangled up in blue

"Tangled Up in Blue" from _Blood on the Tracks_

*and*

aint got no cash, aint got no style,
aint got no gal to make you smile
but don't worry, be happy

cos when you worry, your face will frown,
and that will bring everybody down,
so don't worry, be happy

"Three Little Birds" from _Legend_

Grab the old ladies
And everyone goes
Everyone knows

When you finally get back up on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.

Written by Jimmie Cox

...performed by many blues singers -- my favorite version is Eric Clapton's

Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high

Sarah said...

Clap your hands everybody, and everybody clap your hands

Sarah said...

everybody wants to slap your back
wants to shake your hand
when you're up on top of that mountain

Everybody wants to be a cat
Because a cat's the only cat
Who knows where it's at

Some days, I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now.

Wonderful

Everybody wants to be Sondheim but me
Everybody wants to be Sondheim but me
So they try to write a melody
That goes somewhere unexpectedly
And that's the way they think
They get to be Sondheim.

Listen as they hammer out one chord
Listen as they hammer it til everyone's bored
No wonder Sweeny Todd went out of his gourd!

And they write their lyrics
'Til they're so damn dense
You could stick 'em in your yard
And you could use 'em as a fence
And everyone thinks they've got
The sense of Sondheim.

Well, I want to be Oscar Hammerstein
I want to be Cole Porter
What's wrong with a song
That's prettier--
Or clearer--
Or shorter?

(Benjamin/Chapman)

Young blood is the lovin' upriser

Unknown said...

Everybody used to tell me
Big boys don't cry;
Well, I've been around enough
To know that that was the lie
That held back the tears
In the eyes of a thousand prodigal sons.

Growing Young
Rich Mullins

Everybody on the whole cellblock
Was dancin' to the jailhouse rock

Mrs Muzzy said...

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Listen up everybody if you wanna take a chance.
Just get on the floor and do the new kids dance.

Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
It isn't right
Don't! It isn't nice
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't walk on the grass
Don't disturb the peace
Don't skate on the ice
Well, I say Do!
Walk on the grass it was meant to feel
I say Sail!
Tilt at the windmill
And if you fail, you fail
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't get out of line
When they say that, then
Baby that's a sign
Nine times out of ten
Baby you are doing just fine.

(Sondheim)

Everyone says I love you
The great big mosquito
When he stings on you
The fly when he gets stuck on the flypaper too
says I love you

Everyone says I love you
But just what they say it for,
I never knew
It's just inviting trouble for the poor sucker who
says I love you
