Everybody Knows

Finley Quaye

There's a shark looking for food

I see manners in the sky

I will tell you what it's all about

I will show you what it's all about



Everybody knows shapes

Everybody knows music



On the face of the future

Through the window in my mind, in my mind

Through the mirror in my mind

I see signs of the times, of the times



Everybody knows shapes

Everybody knows music



There is something in us

That will live forever

I see children dying

Moon runs the sea

The sun inspires we you and me



Everybody knows shapes

Everybody knows music



There's a monkey in the tree

Monkey in the tree

I see vampire in the sky

Bleeding the youth them dry

I will tell you what it's all about

What it's all about

I will show you what it's all about

What it's all about



Everybody knows shapes

Everybody knows music
