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
