I'm gonna bet you that heartaches 
and true love and feeble excuses 
For repressed desire adds fuel to the fire 
And the human condition goes on and goes on and goes on 

(Chorus) 
Everybody needs it 
Everybody needs 
Everybody needs it 
Everybody needs 

And I get so blue when I'm stuck all day in school 
And I get so blue when I'm stuck all day in school 
And I stare at the back of my old notebook 
And the teacher gives me a dirty look 
And I've got just one thing on my mind 
No matter how hard I try and try 
I feel like someone else 
I feel like someone else 

Everybody needs 

Big boy, real cool, you can tell he's no one's fool 
And he tries so hard to come off like a star 
You can tell by the way he combs his hair 
By the cocky grin and that moody stare 
By the way he leans and juts out his hip 
And you think any second that he might slip 
But he feels like someone else 
And he feels like someone else 
I know what's on his mind 
I know what's on his mind 

(Repeat Chorus) 

And I'm gonna bet you that I know what's on your mind 
Pretty baby, I'm gonan bet you that I know what's on your mind 

Young girl, so wild, she wears a ponytail 
And she cooks inside with a passion she can't hide 
And she's got that ju-ju in her eyes 
Makes boys and old men come alive 
And she knows the power that she possesses 
When they start to melt under her caresses 
She feels like someone else 
She feels like someone else 
I know what's on her mind 
I know what's on her mind 

(Repeat Chorus) 

True love and virtue get put in a closet 
Like Jeckyll and Hyde, when it starts you can't stop it 
No need to feel guilty, 'cause you're not alone 
When the fire consumes you and nature takes over 
The heartache and true love and feeble excuses 
For repressed desires add fuel to the fire 
When the fire consumes you and nature takes over 
And the human condition goes on and goes on and goes on 

(Repeat Chorus) 

Everybody needs
