lyrics

Everybody’s talking
Words and Music by Bruce Mahin

Everybody’s talking, Everybody’s talking
Everybody’s talking, Everybody’s talking

No one listens anymore Pay attention it’s a bore
There’s something new that’s coming ‘round.
Some greater truth that can be found
Too vapid to ignore

Every body’s talking, Every body’s talking
Every body’s talking, Every body’s talking

Talking can be so much fun.
Don’t stop me now I’ve just begun
To spin a tale that’s over blown.
It’s short on facts and quickly sown
And guaranteed to stun.

Every body’s talking, Every body’s talking
Every body’s talking, Every body’s talking

Words are sacred and profound,
their humble meanings twisted round
By those who wish to sway the crowd with crumbs of hope thrown on the ground to gain some sympathy


Everybody’s talking, Everybody’s talking
Everybody’s talking, Everybody’s talking

So what is truth if it’s not real?
So many words we can’t repeal
A wall of noise we can’t ignore
Just politicians on the floor.
So many facts that cannot be revealed

Every body’s talking, Every body’s talking
Every body’s talking, Every body’s talking

A marble tablet writ in stone,
‘tis nothing more than stories sown
Sweet justice casts her glance aside then throws her scales weighed down with liesfalls crashing on the floor

Every body’s talking, Everybody’s talking
Every body’s talking, Everybody’s talking

Everybody’s talking the words are very clear
A hundred words a minute brother lend me an ear
Everybody’s talking non-stop from nine to five
One thing we keep forgetting there’s no one left to hear

Everybody’s talking, Everybody’s talking
