Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Diamond and I'm in awe
There's nowhere that you won't go for love
(Love or money in our pockets)
Personal injury fun
So many damages to be won, for who?
(For you, but for me too)
[Verse 2]
Everybody cries
Everybody cries sometimes
Oh, everybody cries
[Verse 3]
Everybody cries
Everybody cries sometimes
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
[Verse 4]
If you had broken your neck
Imagine the size of the cheque we'll get
(We can split it, you and me)
[Verse 5]
Did you get stung by a bee?
On a weatherman's jamboree
Oh, honey
(Oh, the honey we're gonna eat)
[Verse 6]
Everybody cries
Everybody cries sometimes
Oh, everybody cries
[Verse 7]
Everybody cries
Everybody cries sometimes
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
That's alright, that's alright, that's alright
[Verse 8]
Your suit is looking good
The reflection of the hood
Of your black Mercedes at a broken down bar
That's taking two spots in the handicap lot
Or sat at the mall where the curb is too tall
We slip and then fall and the ambulance called
It was down the hall to the rich hospital
[Verse 9]
And you're all smiles now
You are smiles, aren't you now?
[Verse 10]
Everybody cries
Everybody cries sometimes
Oh, everybody cries
[Verse 11]
Everybody cries
Everybody cries sometimes
That's alright, that's alright, that's alright
(That's alright)
[Verse 12]
And I know I'm judging you unfairly now
It's been a long day and I wanna get home
But I'm stuck behind a bus in a traffic jam
Your face is in an ad on the back of that bus
[Verse 13]
I'm a bad man for judging you
(A bad man for judging you)
I'm a bad man for judging you
(A bad man for judging you)
'Cause I don't really know you at all
Know you at all
[Verse 14]
Everybody cries
Everybody cries sometimes
Oh, everybody cries
[Verse 15]
Everybody knows
We're all just going home someday
Oh, everybody dies
[Verse 16]
Everybody cries, everybody cries sometimes
Oh, everybody cries
Everybody cries, everybody cries sometimes
[Verse 17]
That's alright that's alright, that's alright
That's alright that's alright, that's alright
That's alright that's alright, that's alright
