“Everything” is the third song (and, coincidentally, the third release) from American alternative singer-songwriter Eleanor Friedberger’s fourth solo album, Rebound.

[Verse 1]
All my life I wanted everything
I won't settle and I won't think twice about anything
Time will tell who's right about everything
Who cares what you think is mine?
I wanted everything
[Verse 2]
She could dream up a life with everything
(Everything, everything)
A man in Greece, a girlfriend in Italy

(Nothing or everything)
[Chorus]
She was nothing for you
And everything too
She'd take to the streets and stay at home
It's true, so true
[Bridge]
Who's got everything

I want everything to go my way
[Verse 2]
A house, a chair and a rug
That's everything
(Everything, everything)

(Nothing or everything)
A life that's quiet and nice
I wanted everything
(Everything, everything)
But I'm going away anytime I like
I wanted everything
(Nothing or everything)
[Chorus]
She was nothing for you
And everything too
She'd take to the streets and stay at home
It's true, so true
