I Want Everyone To Like Me - Randy Newman

I want everyone to like me

I want everyone to like me real bad

I want everyone to approve of me

Because when they disapprove of me, it makes me feel so sad

I wanna earn the respect of my peers

If it takes a hundred years

I’d like to find out where they are by the way

I would run to embrace them

I’m only kiddin

I’m really very modest once you get to know me

A house and a little land

Little someone to lend a hand

Little money set aside

God, then I would be satisfied

Want someone to tell me, one time: «Honey you don’t look well

Why doncha lie down for a couple years.

I’ll look after things.»

A grown up woman would be nice

I’d like to flip over once or twice

Find out what makes her tick

Some friends to call my own, God knows

A family and a home

A couple kiddies at my side

Keep me fat, and satisfied

I want everyone to like me

That’s one thing I know for sure

I want everyone to like me

'Cause I’m a little insecure
