Everybody Knows

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
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
