Lyrics
Livin' as you do and I'm watchin' you
Observing your way of living
And you don't really know a-just what to do
You're uncertain about the appropriate actions
You don't really know
Emphasizes the lack of knowledge or clarity in the situation
You don't really know
-You don't really know
-What to do
-And I'm standin' here not quite aware
Present and attentive, but not fully conscious
And I'm tryin' baby, tryin' not to stare
Making an effort not to gaze intensely
Ooh, 'cause everybody else is here
Awareness that others are also present
Yes, everybody else is here
Reiteration of the presence of others
Everybody else is here watchin' you
Collective observation of you by everyone else
Ooh
Expression of a reaction or emotion
Ooh, 'cause everybody else is here
Repetition emphasizing the pervasive attention from everyone
Yes, everybody else is here
-Everybody else is here
-Watchin' us
Expanded scope to include both the observer and the observed
