"You And Everybody Else"

This song was included in my very first copyright collection, “Neither Preludes Nor Fugues.” I recorded it many years later, as part of my tape “Making a Mess.” I started work on a follow-up tape to be called “Another Fine Mess,” but that one was never finished.


You And Everybody Else

© 1983 Brian Hutzell

Everybody loves you
You love everybody
You use everybody and everybody uses you

Everybody feels you
You feel everybody
You choose everybody and everybody chooses you

Let me know the next time you are free
Maybe you can spend a little time with me

Pick a number, stay in line
Don't give up but don't lose your mind
Some again if I'm not at home
That's just the way I live; I'm never alone
'Cause when I'm alone my defenses are down
And when I'm down there's no fun to be found

Everybody hugs you
You hug everybody
You tease everybody and everybody teases you

Everybody's with you
You're with everybody
You squeeze everybody and everybody squeezes you

Please spend a little more time with me
I'm in love with you
Can't you see?

Pick a number, stay in line
Don't give up but don't lose your mind
Some again if I'm not at home
That's just the way I live; I'm never alone
'Cause when I'm alone my defenses are down
And when I'm down there's no fun to be found
