Bendin' over backwards

You walk on shells like a prisoner

But it's shaky ground when you livin'

in a house of cards

Your nerves are shot

You can barely cope

(You're) spread so thin like a tightrope

Trippin' over yourself to make sure

you never miss a mark

Don't you know

You can't please everybody

No you can't please everybody

No matter how hard ya try

You can't please everybody

No you can't please everybody

No matter how hard ya try

Whatcha lookin' at me for

I used my tears to mop the floor

One stick one stone ain't enough to make me fall apart

Somebody waits for you with a crown

And somebody else wants to take ya down

It don't matter which side of the fence

that you choose to ride

Don't you know

You can't please everybody

No you can't please everybody

No matter how hard ya try

You can't please everybody

No you can't please everybody

No matter how hard ya try

You need someone to hold your hand

Someone to understand

But you tiptoin' tryin' to find it's just a waste of time

So many people up in your face

Only hold ya back

Only slow your pace

You'll lose it if ya keep on tryin'

Hey hey hey/ Don't you know

You can't please everybody

No you can't please everybody

No matter how hard ya try

You can't please everybody

No you can't please everybody

No matter how hard ya try

end...
