Everybody's Selling Something

More 4/4s in the neighborhood

Banging on the same guitar

Dreaming of living in Hollywood

Puffing on a big cigar

Prima ballerina in a magazine

Call her on the telephone

Tell her that you're sending up a limousine

She say: I don't know...

I know where to go!

Now 4/4s in a different mood

Thinks he's gonna change the world

Making all the money that some others should

Guess it's 'cause we don't deserve

Meet a lot of people in a magazine

Tell you where not to go

Tell you that I'm living out a fantasy

You say: You don't know

They play me on the radio

You gotta walk before you crawl

Remember everybody's selling something

You gotta talk before you know

Remember everybody's selling something

There's like a racket on the ball

Remember everybody wants attention

You gotta rock before you roll

Remember everybody's selling something

Sell me something

Sell me something

Sell me something

Now!

Now 4/4s into mother earth

Hurry up and wait T.V.

Funny how your life'll take a different turn

And how you get to dance for free

See a lot of freedom in your magazine?

Does it tell you what you want to know?

Tell you once and maybe twice and maybe three times

That's all right!

We're coming out in stereo!

You gotta walk before you crawl

remember everybody's selling something

You gotta talk before you know

remember everybody's selling something

There's like a racket on the ball

Remember everybody wants attention

You gotta rock before you roll

Remember everybody's selling something

Sell me something

Sell me something

Sell me something

Now!

Sell me something

Sell me something

Sell me something

Now!
