John Kay - Everybody Knows You lyrics

Words and music by John Kay and Michael Wilk

Ah, it's you again, you're back for more

Let me tell you right now, you just keep walkin' past my door

You got nothin' I want, just a pack of lies

That you're down here scrounging, well it's no surprise

For your lies came back to haunt you

Now they're bound to dog your heels

In your eyes I see the panic

Now you know just how it feels

Everybody knows you, everybody saw

Everybody knows you, everybody knows just what you are

Everybody knows you, everybody heard

Everybody knows you, everybody knows you tried to screw the world

Say what you will, do what you like

Ain't gonna change a thing with your sleazy alibis

You got nowhere to hide, no place to go

Everybody 'round here's just waitin' for the show

For it's time to pay the piper

Yeah, to pay him what you owe

You can't buy your absolution

No, you got to eat some crow

Everybody knows you, everybody saw

Everybody knows you, everybody knows just what you are

Everybody knows you, everybody heard

Everybody knows you, everybody knows you tried to screw the world

Everybody knows you, everybody saw

Everybody knows you, everybody knows just what you are

Everybody knows you, everybody heard

Everybody knows you, everybody knows you broke your word

Everybody knows you, yes everyone can read

Everybody knows you, and everybody knows you did the dirty deed
