Drink From the Fountain

Everybody wants the pleasure
But nobody wants the pain
Everybody wants to come along
And ride the gravy train

But we don't want to see the vanity
That is coursing through our veins

We all want to plead the fifth, man
Because nobody wants the blame

Everybody wants a lover
Nobody wants a fool
Everybody wants to know the things they
Cannot teach in school

Who would want to work a day job
When you could be a movie star
So let's take a plane to LAX
I'm sure we'll go far

So we'll do our little dance
Wicked and wanton
Turn on the camera
Everybody wants some

Well do a little dance
On top of the mountain
Turn on the light
And drink from the fountain
Of fame and fortune

Everybody wants the treasure
Everybody wants the same
We'll do anything for a buck, oh
We'll keep you entertained

Because the center of the universe
Is a very crowded place
And we're quick to call the owner up
And file a complaint

We'll do a little dance
Drown in the vodka
Turn on the camera
Everybody wants some

We'll do a little dance
On top of the mountain
Turn on the light
And drink from the fountain
Of fame and fortune

Well everybody wants the pleasure
But no one wants the pain
No we don't think we'll burn ourselves
As we reach out for the flame

We all want the world to throw us
A ticker tape parade
But we're quick to play the victim when
it all goes down the drain

Everybody seeks the sunshine as we
Run out of the rain
We hide ourselves in our panic rooms
and hope it goes away
But we all want to be the hero
In our tragic little play

Still we want to run our mouths when
There's nothing left to say

Take another chance
Swallow that potion
Fall out of bed
And into the ocean

Circling sharks
Blood in the water
Swim to the surface
Now everybody loves ya

So we'll do our little dance
Wicked and wanton
Turn on the camera
Everybody wants some

Well do a little dance
On top of the mountain
Turn on the light
And drink from the fountain
Of fame and fortune
