Everybody Loves You Now - Live at the Great American Music Hall - 1975 - Single Version

Baby all the lights are turned on you

Now you're in the centre of the stage

Everything revolves 'round what you do

Ah, you are in your prime, you've come of age

And you can always have your way somehow

'Cause everybody loves you now

You can walk away from your mistakes

Ah, you can turn your back on what you knew

Just a little smile is all it takes

Yeah, and you can have your cake and eat it too

Ah, loneliness will get to you somehow

But everybody loves you now

Ah, they all want your white body

And they await your reply

Ah, but between you and me and the Staten Island ferry

So do I

All the people want to know your name

Ah, soon there will be lines outside your door

Feelings do not matter in your game

Yeah, 'cause nothing's gonna touch you anymore

So your life is only living anyhow

But everybody loves you now

Close your eyes when you don't wanna see

Stay at home when you don't wanna go

Only speak to those who will agree

Yeah, and close your mind when you don't wanna know

Ah, you have lost your innocence somehow

But everybody loves you now

Ah you know that nothing lasts forever

It's all been done before

Ah, but you ain't got the time to go to Cold Spring Harbor

No more

See how all the people gather 'round

Hey, isn't it a thrill to see them crawl

Keep your eyes ahead and don't look down

Yeah, lock yourself inside your sacred wall

Ah, this is what you wanted ain't you proud?

'Cause everybody loves you now
