Drink From the Fountain Lyrics

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
