Story behind the song
This is a story written about how people in today's society who are trying to get on top by taking from others thinking that it is without consequence.Seemingly it has become a normal occurance. It was inspired by a moment spent on the phone with a customer service rep who actually made some remarkable statements about people who were doing nice things for others and how that was not the way things work. Imediately realizing that things were upside down and morality was not normal anymore I was compelled to write EVERYBODY.
Lyrics
Everybody wants to take what you've got Everybody wants to take what you've earned Everybody wants to see you get hurt Everybody wants to watch you go down and burn Everybody out there wants to fraud and scam tell you that they'll take you to the promised land lie and cheat you out of your hard earned cash just to fill their pockets in a hurried flash now Bridge Don't you believe it when their tellin' you they got the answers that your lookin' for another easy way to rob you blind it's cool another fool another dollar more Chorus Na na na na it's a shame na na na na well it's not the same na na na na well it's upside down what's right is wrong and it's turned around what's right is wrong and it's turned around aaaaaaaah Everybody wants to see you suffer Everybody wants to beat another Everybody wants to be the one who rises to the top wearing their disguises Someone had a heart they let them slide Someone told them that there were no more free rides I couldn't believe it when I heard her say someone did something nice it's wrong that way Bridge Don't you believe it when their tellin' you they got the answers that your lookin' for another easy way to rob you blind it's cool another fool another dollar more Chorus Na na na na it's a shame na na na na well it's not the same na na na na well it's upside down what's right is wrong and it's turned around what's right is wrong and it's turned around what's right is wrong and it's turned around aaaaaaaah Instrumental Bridge Don't you believe it when they tellin' you they got the answers that your lookin' for another easy way to rob you blind it's cool another fool another dollar more Chorus Na na na na it's a shame na na na na well it's not the same na na na na well it's upside down what's right is wrong and it's turned around what's right is wrong and it's turned around what's right is wrong and it's turned around what's right is wrong and it's turned around aaaaaaaah Na na na na na na na na na na Na na na na na na na na Na na na na na na na na na na Na na na na na na na nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Very cool song, this has a real 60's pop rock feel to me, and I love that stuff, reminds me alot of Peter, Paul and Mary, or even the Mama's & the Papa's. Very cool groove goin on, awesome lyrics and you have a unique and refreshing voice, keeps a person really listening. I really loved seeing the story about your inspiration behind writing the song....too bad this is the way life has become nowdays....more often that not I'm afraid. Take care and thanks for sharing your talent
