You see `em comin` at you every night
Strung on pretension, they fall for you at first sight
You know their business, you think it`s a bore
They make you restless, it`s nothin` you ain`t seen before
Get around town, spend your time on the run
You never let down, say you do it for fun
Never miss a play, though you make quite a few
You give it all away - everybody wants you
You crave attention, you can never say no
Throw your affections any way the wind blows
You always make it, you`re on top of the scene
You sell the copy like the cover of a magazine
Puttin` on the eyes `til there`s nobody else
You never realize what you do to yourself
The things that they see make the daily reviews
You never get free - everybody wants you
Everybody knows you
Everybody snows you
Everybody needs you, leads you, bleeds you
Nights of confusion and impossible dreams
Days at the mirror, patchin` up around the seams
You got your glory, you paid for it all
You take your pension in loneliness and alcohol
Say goodbye to conventional ways
You can`t escape the hours, you lose track of the days
The more you understand, seems the more like you do
You never get away - everybody wants you
