Joker Johnny was a lie teller Cause he thought somebody might like him better So he built it up and built it up till it all fell down But he never thought the bitter truth was gonna find him out He did it all to impress someone else When all he had to do was stop and be himself Oh everybody wants to be somebody Oh yes its true' no telling what some people will do Oh nobody wants to be a nobody Cause its a far more bitter fate To go through this life Caring the weight shoot When they somebody for the clothes they wear And theyll advertise it like its ordinary They got territories and so they stand their ground But what they dont know is what comes around It comes right back around What they really wanted is be to accepted To find in the out end that the streets are self-correcting Oh everybody wants to be somebody Oh yes its true' no telling what some people will do Oh nobody wants to be a nobody Cause its a far more bitter fate To go through this life Caring the weight Far more worse then dying is living with a soul Thats laden with consequence the of all the happiness you stole Sometimes a guilty conscience and carrying the pain Is harder than a bullet to the brain Oh everybody wants to be somebody Oh its yes true' no telling what some people will do Oh nobody wants to be nobodya Cause its a far more bitter fate To go through life this Caring that Oh everybody wants to be somebody Oh yes its true' no telling what some people will do Say nobody wants to be a nobody Cause its a far more bitter fate To go through life' always Caring that weight Always carrying that weight' you got to let it go Let it go' listen on more time' I say always carrying that weight Always carrying that weight' Just let it go' and just put it down' Let it carry in the way
