Everybody Knows

Hold up, don't be mad

I've got some news, but it isn't bad, exactly

It's just, you're on your phone a lot less than I

And so this thing might have passed you by

The other night when we were both at the Gala

I never knew Selena Gomez took a pic of me staring at you

And put it up on her Instagram for all to see

With a caption saying, "Why can't someone look like that at me?"

And within about an hour, yikes

It had forty-seven million likes

And a national conversation about my look

In the pic that Selena took

And I never told them, but everybody knows

Everybody knows that I love you

I never told them, but everybody knows

Everybody knows how I feel

I was hoping you were unaware of what I never dare expressed

Nevertheless, apparently it shows

'Cause everybody knows

Alright, now look, what I meant

This doesn't have to be a big event

I knows it's been re-grammed, reposted, and retweeted

But I'm expecting you to still delete it

I mean, I've been staring like that for at least a year

And you don't even know I'm here

So, in spite of the encouragement that the commenters wrote us

You can keep on pretending not to notice

But, hey, in case the public response

Makes the lady reconsider what she wants

I am ready and willing, completely gratis

To change your relationship status

And I never told you, but everybody knows

Everybody knows that I love you

I never told you, but everybody knows

Everybody knows how I feel

I was planning just to lay down dead if you never read the clues

Well, based on the news, I might as well propose

'Cause everybody knows

I never told them, but everybody knows

Everybody knows how I love you

I never told you, but everybody knows

Everybody knows how I feel

I was dreaming that you'd be in sync with what I've been thinking of

'Cause people say love invariably grows

When everybody knows

And everybody knows
