All About People Lyrics

"All About People"
As performed by The Paul Thorn Band on the album "A Long Way from Tupelo"
Written by: Paul Thorn, Billy MaddoxIt's twelve o'clock, she's had a long night
Twirlin' round' a pole by a neon light
Some were kind and some were crass
And some just wanted to kiss herShe puts her wig in her bag and closes the lid
She's paying for college and raising a kid
It's not in her heart but it's sure in her head
She hangs up her g-string and goes to bedWe're all reading from the same book
We're just on different pagesSo go tell Lois Lane there's no Superman
Don't think Mickey Mouse is waiting down in Disneyland
It's not a church if it's just got a steeple
Just look inside - it's all about peopleHe's been an accountant for fifteen years
Sometimes he wonders what he's doing here
He's got a tattoo of a skull on his chest
Beneath a white, pressed shirt, a tie and a vestWe're all reading from the same book
We're just on different pagesSo go tell Lois Lane there's no Superman
Don't think Mickey Mouse is waiting down in Disneyland

It's not a church if it's just got a steeple
Just look inside - it's all about peopleThere's good folks everywhere, yes there is!
Everybody's got a story and a cross to bear, soGo tell Lois Lane there's no Superman
Don't think Mickey Mouse is waiting down in Disneyland
It's not a church if it's just got a steeple
Just look inside - it's all aboutGo tell Lois Lane there's no Superman
Don't think Mickey Mouse is waiting down in Disneyland
It's not a church if it's just got a steeple
Just look inside - it's all about people
