| I saw a man on a TV show, he said. |
| «Don't drink alcohol.
|
| Please don’t smoke no cigarrettes, Don’t drink coffee at all.»
|
| Later on, I’m watching the news
|
| And the man from the TV show was stopped by the cops
|
| And in his trunk was a suitcase full of… well, you know
|
| Everybody’s up to somethin', everybody’s got somethin' goin' on
|
| Nobody’s up to nothin', everybody’s done somebody wrong
|
| Everybody' up to somethin', everybody’s got to sing their song
|
| Nobody’s up to nothin', come on everybody sing along
|
| Well, the preacher man is callin' on you
|
| To live a much better life
|
| «Get to the church on time, say all your prayers,
|
| Don’t covet thy neighbor’s wife.»
|
| The preacher man was surprised to see
|
| Dissensions in the ranks
|
| When the feds moved in
|
| It was soon found out he had a billion in the bank
|
| Everybody’s up to somethin', everybody’s got somethin' goin' on
|
| Nobody’s up to nothin', everybody’s done somebody wrong
|
| Everybody' up to somethin', everybody’s got to sing their song
|
| Nobody’s up to nothin', come on everybody sing along
|
| Well everybody’s got somethin' to say
|
| About practically everything
|
| They can feed the poor, they can tax the rich
|
| They can even make Ashlee sing!
|
| If I’m doin' somethin' that’s botherin' you
|
| Don’t be tellin' it nationwide
|
| 'Cause everybody in the whole wide world
|
| Got a little bit of somethin' to hide
|
| Everybody’s up to somethin', everybody’s got somethin' goin' on
|
| Nobody’s up to nothin', everybody’s done somebody wrong
|
| Everybody' up to somethin', everybody’s got to sing their song
|
| Nobody’s up to nothin', come on everybody sing along |
