The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I don't care what people say, it makes no difference anyway

I try my best to understand, why such a failure would need a hand

I don't quite have a job as such, I drink out loud, I swear too much

And my girl says I sing off key, I think she's getting bored of me

Because, everybody does

I wish I knew how to be somebody

Cos I can't stand the thought of being myself

And you may laugh, you may smile

Humour me for just a little while

Because, everybody does

People say that I'm not well, I guess that only time will tell

I fill my head with dirty jokes, to cheer me up when I'm sad and broke

And my girl tries to make amends, but I hear she's sleeping with my friends

She says that she's got PMT, I think she's getting bored of me

Because, everybody does

I wish I knew how to be somebody

Cos I can't stand the thought of being myself

And if you've listened a little bit, you probably think that I'm full of s**t

Because, everybody does

everybody does

everybody does
