He picked on the family dog as a small boy
But he was an altar boy as he grew up
He was a good man when he made love
He was a bad man when he drank

His children loved him when they were far away
When they were close they never saw him
His wife loved him when she lived with him
When she left him, never thought of him

It's not you, it's just everyone
It's everyone, and it's not you
It's you, and you're just everyone

She wanted a prince, but she got her a frog
Keeps waiting on trains coming out of the fog
She's a good girl with the elderly
She's a bad girl with her lies

Her dreams were happy when they were miles away
But when they came true, they were nightmares
And the names she kept up on the wall
Were the ones who never helped her at all

It's not you, it's just everyone
It's everyone, but it's not you
It's you, and that's not everyone

It's just you, and like everyone
You're anyone and just like you
It's you, and you are everyone
