Everybody Gets Used
Unveiling Life's Puppetry: Everybody's Dance with Destiny
Lyrics
Early in the morning
Starting the day
Very soon
Shortly
Look for me, child
Seek me out, my child
In the blooms
Amongst the blossoms
Hooks in me now
Attached or ensnared
I'm your fool
I am under your influence
Hooks in me now
Still under your influence
Everybody gets used
Everyone becomes accustomed to something
Call me crazy
Refer to me as insane
Call me what you like
Call me whatever you want
Call me lady
Address me as a woman
Call me up, tonight
Call me on this night
Hooks in me now
Attached or ensnared
I'm your fool
I am under your influence
Hooks in me, child
Attached or ensnared, my child
Everybody gets used
Everyone becomes accustomed to something
Everybody gets used
-Everybody gets used
-Like my mama said
Similar to advice from my mother
Down at the canebreak
At the thicket or swamp
Found my papa dead
Discovered my father lifeless
All the planets aligned
All celestial bodies in proper arrangement
All in time
Everything in due time
Strung like pearls
Arranged like precious jewels
Across the divine
Spanning the divine
Hooks in me, child
Attached or ensnared, my child
I'm your fool
I am under your influence
Hooks in me, now
Attached or ensnared, now
Everybody gets used
Everyone becomes accustomed to something
Everybody gets used
-A chorus of color
A collective display of hues
I called for you
I summoned you
All the names of God at once
All divine names simultaneously
I called for you
I summoned you
All the names of God
All divine names
