Generate meaning
1
Everybody cares, everybody understands
2
Yes, everybody cares about you
3
As a matter of fact I'm sure they do
4
But if you don't act just right
5
They kick you in the head
6
But it isn't a real offense, you see
7
They're doing it out of sympathy
8
And you're the one who's bringing it all about
9
So here I lay dreaming
10
Looking at the brilliant sun
11
Raining its guiding light upon everyone
12
For a moment's rest I leaned against the banister
13
After running upstairs again and again
14
From a place you people never been
15
With all of Fear City's finest following behind
16
Who with a greater skill and resourcefulness
17
After putting me under a wrongful arrest
18
Stuck me out to the desert to dry and die
19
So here I lay dreaming
20
Looking at the brilliant sun
21
Raining its guiding light upon everyone
22
Here I lay dreaming
23
Looking at the brilliant sun
24
Pushing its guiding light upon everyone
25
The dream-killing doctor says to describe my dream
26
Some things are for no one to know
27
And for you, twelve-stepping cop, to not find out
Everybody Cares, Everybody Understands
