You see [bad word]  at you every night  [bad word] 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 [bad word] 
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
