Everyman needs a companion
Someone to turn his thoughts to
I know I do
Everyman needs a companion
Someone to console him
Like I need you
John the baptist took Jesus Christ
Down to the river on a Friday night
They talked about mary like a couple of boys
With nothing to lose
Too scared to try
Everyman needs a companion
Someone to turn his thoughts to
I know I do
Everyman needs a companion
Someone to console him
Like I need you
Joseph campbell and the rolling stones
Couldn't give me a myth
So I had to write my own
Like I'm hung up on religion
Though I know it's a waste
I never liked the name Joshua
I got tired of J
Everyman needs a companion
Someone to console him
Like I need you
