Everybody Laughs Lyrics

[Chorus 1]
Everybody laughs and everybody cries
Everybody lives and everybody dies
Everybody eats and everybody loves
Everybody knows what everybody does

[Post-Chorus 1]
Everybody’s going through the changes
Every complication
What you say with gesture and expression
In my imagination

[Verse 1]
Every mobile phone
And every restaurant
Everyone we know
And everything you want

[Chorus 2]
Everybody wonders what you’re gonna do
Everything is closer, everything is true
Everybody’s starting everything again
Everybody’s outside, now they’re coming in

[Post-Chorus 2]
Everybody’s going through the garbage
Looking for inspiration
Someone find it staring at the ceiling
Of the subway station

[Verse 2]
Everyone you love
And every kind of way
And everything you know
And every single phase
Every change of heart
And every saving grace

Every song we sing
And every kind of place

[Chorus 3]
Everybody looks and everybody sees
Everybody’s asking everybody “please”
Everybody going everywhere at once
Everybody’s back where everybody’s from

[Bridge]
Hey
Hey hey hey hey
Hey
Hey hey hey hey
Hey
Hey hey hey hey
Hey
Hey hey hey hey

[Chorus 4]
Everybody dances, everybody stops
Everybody wants what everybody’s got
Everybody wonders what you’re gonna do
Everybody’s way when everybody chooses

Everybody Laughs Lyrics Meaning

[Chorus 1]
This part is saying that no matter who you are, we all go through the same basic stuff—feeling happy and sad, living and dying, loving and sharing. We’re all more alike than different.

[Post-Chorus 1]
It’s talking about how everyone deals with life’s ups and downs. Sometimes, people express things without words, and we try to figure it out through body language or just imagining their thoughts.

[Verse 1]
It’s pointing out how everyday places and objects—like phones, restaurants, people, and desires—are part of what makes up our world and experiences.

[Chorus 2]
Here, it’s about uncertainty and new beginnings. People are curious, trying again, stepping outside their comfort zones, and reconnecting with each other or coming back to familiar places.

[Post-Chorus 2]
This describes how people search in the most unexpected places—like trash or staring blankly—for something that sparks ideas or helps them feel something real and creative.

[Verse 2]
It touches on all the people we care about and the many ways we experience life—through love, memories, heartbreak, hope, music, places, and all the little changes we go through along the way.

[Chorus 3]
This part talks about how everyone is watching, hoping, and rushing around. Deep down, we all seem to end up back where we started, like coming full circle in life.

[Bridge]
These repeated “hey” lines feel like a simple, emotional chant—like a break from words, just expressing energy, connection, or a feeling of being alive together in the moment.

[Chorus 4]
It’s about how people move between action and pause, wanting what others have, and trying to decide which path to follow when everyone’s figuring out their own way.
