[Verse 1]
Oh, I'm gonna bet you that heartaches
And true love and feeble excuses
For repressed desire adds fuel to the fire
And the human condition goes on
And goes on and goes on
[Chorus]
Everybody needs it
Everybody needs
Everybody needs it
Everybody needs
[Verse 2]
And I get so blue
When I'm stuck all day in school
And I get so blue
When I'm stuck all day in school
And I stare at the back of my old notebook
And the teacher gives me a dirty look
And I've got just one thing on my mind
No matter how hard I try and try
I feel like someone else
And I feel like someone else
[Refrain]
Everybody needs
[Verse 3]
Big boy, real cool
You can tell he's no one's fool
And he tries so hard
To come off like a star
You can tell by the way he combs his hair
By the cocky grin and that moody stare
By the way he leans and juts out his hip
And you think any second that he might slip
But he feels like someone else
And he feels like someone else
[Pre-Chorus]
I know what's on his mind
I know what's on his mind
[Chorus]
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
[Post-Chorus]
And I'm gonna bet you that I know
What's on your mind
Pretty baby, and I, oh, I'm
Gonna bet you that I know
What's on your mind
Pretty baby, and I know
What's on your mind
Pretty baby, I—
[Verse 4]
Young girl, so wild
She wears a ponytail
And she cooks inside
With a passion she can't hide
And she's got that juju in her eyes
Makes boys and old men come alive
And she knows the power that she possesses
When they start to melt under her caresses
She feels like someone else
She feels like someone else
[Pre-Chorus]
I know what's on her mind
I know what's on her mind
[Chorus]
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
[Verse 5]
True love and virtue
Gets put in a closet
Like Jekyll and Hyde
When it starts, you can't stop it
No need to feel guilty
'Cause you're not alone
When the fire consumes you
And nature takes over
[Bridge]
(The heartache and true love
And feeble excuses)
And I'm gonna bet you that I know
What's on your mind
(For repressed desires add fuel to the fire)
Pretty baby, and I'm
(When the fire consumes you
And nature takes over)
Gonna bet you that I know
What's on your mind
(And the human condition goes on
And goes on and goes on)
Pretty baby, and I know
What's on your mind
(And goes on and goes on
And goes on and goes)
[Chorus]
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
Everybody needs it (Everybody needs it)
Everybody needs (Everybody needs)
[Outro]
Everybody needs
