He never, ever saw it
Coming at all
He never, ever saw it
Coming at all
He never, ever saw it
Coming at all

Hey, open wide, here comes
Original sin
Hey, open wide, here comes
Original sin
(Vrrr)
Hey, open wide, here comes
Original sin
It's alright, it's al-

No one's got it all
No one's got it all
No one's got it a-a-all

Power to the people
We don't want it
We want pleasure
And the TVs try to rape us
And I guess that they're succeeding
And we're going to these meetings
But we're not doing any meeting
And we're trying to be faithful, but we're
Cheating, cheating, cheating

Hey, open wide, here comes
Original sin
Hey, open wide, here comes
Original sin
(Vrrr)
Hey, open wide, here comes
Original sin
It's alright, it's al-

No one's got it all
No one's got it all
No one's got it a-a-all

Power to the people
We don't want it
We want pleasure
And the TVs try to rape us
And I guess that they're succeeding
And we're going to these meetings
But we're not doing any meeting
And we're trying to be faithful, but we're
Cheating, cheating, cheating

I'm the hero of the story
Don't need to be saved
I'm the hero of the story
Don't need to be saved
I'm the hero of the story
Don't need to be saved
I'm the hero of the story
Don't need to be saved
It's alright, it's al-

No one's got it all
No one's got it all
No one's got it a-a-all
All

All, all, all, all, all
All, all, all, all, all
All, all, all, all, all
All, all, all, all, all
All, all, all, all, all

I liked the part in the movie when they played this song the whole Reality vs. Expectations split-screen was done well.

This song made that scene special with a certain mood, unlike any other song. Even for a guy, I could feel inside of me dying. But I love this song and the amazing movie :)

The 1st Regina Spektor song I ever heard was Fidelity. And I liked it. Then I heard her songs in (500) days of summer and My Sisters Keeper and now I love her!!!
