Everybody Knows - Gilbert O'Sullivan

Everybody knows that the world is round

That is everybody 'cept me

'Cause I ain’t been told

So why should I be forced to believe

That the feet I wear are meant to bear

Pieces of leather that shine

No that can’t be true

Cause I can’t find a piece to fit mine

When I walk downtown

Dressed up like a clown

People they just burst into tears

Lift their heads and whisper in my ears

Cover up your toes 'cause everybody knows

When I walk downtown

Dressed up like a clown

People they just burst into tears

Lift their heads and whisper in my ears

Cover up your toes 'cause everybody knows

That the state we’re in

Is about to begin

And if that’s not enough

You try to balance a plate

While eating granny smelly’s mince pie

When I walk downtown

Dressed up like a clown

People they just burst into tears

Lift their heads and whisper in my ears

Cover up your toes 'cause everybody knows
