Ringing the Bells

Song
Everbody's ringing the bells
Everbody's turning on the light
Everybody's going out
To have a good time tonight.

Everybody's finding a job
Everybody's mowing the lawn
Everybody's moving in
And then they're gone.

Once I had a friend,
Met him on the street...
But friendships end
And never again did we meet.

Everybody's buying a home
Everybody's finding a wife
Everybody's looking for
The good life.

Why is my verse
Barren of new pride?
There's a full moon
And a black crow flying outside.

Everybody's ringing the bells
Everybody's turning on the light
Everybody going out
For a good time tonight.
