Everyday & Everynight

Words & music by Rich Wyman

I’ve been standing on this corner all day
Watching people shuffle on their way
I’ve been looking at the water flow by
I still don’t understand the reason why
I’ve been burned, still ain’t learned my lesson
I’ve been writing letters to you in my mind
I’m asking questions still not getting answers
Always the same reply
You’re getting very very good 
At telling the same old lie

Chorus
Everyday and everynight
Out in the sun or the pale moonlight
Everyday and everynight
I see everything that you do 
Everyday of your life

Tell me baby are you now happy
Now that you’re eating with a fork and a knife
What’s that you say Oh thank you
That’s a good one
You should be having the time of your life
Could that be me looking in the mirror
I never noticed the circles were so dark
Same time next year
I’ll be standing in the spotlight
Screaming at the top of my lungs
Is everybody here having fun getting burned by the sun

Chorus

Whatever you do 
Whatever you say
You think that makes everything alright
The New York Times and late night TV
They’ve all got your pictures
And the survey says 
You’ve already died
Where ever you go
Where ever you hide
Look out ‘cause we’re looking at you
Your mom and dad and silvers spoons
Your education on cartoons
Can you finish a sentence or two
Where ever you go
Where ever you hide
Look out at ‘cause we’re looking at you

Chorus
