Nobody

Nobody

were always

with somebody

would you

know anybody

everybody says

they’re fine

everything’s fine

but everybody lies

on the street

the mailman with his wave

the mother with her buggy

the old man with his cane

the little boy with his eyes

the lady with her dog

the rich man with his money

the poor man with his pockets

the widow with her house

the out-lived with their hours

the short-lived with their moment

the white-collar with their gloves

the blue-collar with their hands

the neighbors with their smile

the crowd with their voice

the singers with their song

yeah, they all belong
