Janis Ian - Everybody Knows lyrics
[Janis Ian - Everybody Knows lyrics]
You don't know how I cry
Oh, it's no fun to be alone, made of stone
You don't know how to try
Jeannie with the light brown hair
Comes up the stair
Tells me what to wear, says it's there
I know she's a fool
Wish she could sing to you
Maybe even bring you
Some kind of ring or two for you
But that wouldn't be cool
You've been a bad girl you've been had, girl
Your mama's in the pantry
With your other daddy, quietly
Turn off the electricity
Everybody knows that you've been
Wearing no clothes
Ever since the time you tried to
Fly from the Eiffеl Tower
The power of thе flower is dead
I'm sitting here all alone
You don't know how I cry
Oh, it's no fun to be alone, made of stone
You don't know how to die
Junie is a flower child
She tries to run wild
She says it's only the style
I know she's truthful sitting on a stone
All alone never know how it grows
Enstarved on the stone i know it's beautiful
You've been a bad boy you've been had, boy
Your daddy took the toys
To the neighbor, and go to investigate
Your daddy's upper plate is made of gold
Nobody told you, no one wants to hold you
Nobody showed you, I could have
Told you to watch it, kid
You might end up dead
Don't mind the words of my song
They're not strong i'll get along
Don't get tangled with the do you-inners
They can eat you for dinner
You're a full-time sinner, yeah
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Ask them why, they reply that it shows
Everybody knows, everybody knows
All about the hoes in they clothes
Better been shown on a screen to the queen
I'm sitting here all alone
You don't know how I cry
Oh, it's no fun to be alone, made of stone
You don't know how to try
