No matter who you are, you need one
no matter what you do, you want one
No matter if you are uptight or smug
everybody needs a hug
Even if you are up or even if youââ¬â¢re down
even if youââ¬â¢re flat on the ground
Even if you feel like youââ¬â¢ve got some kind of bug
everybody needs a hug
Maybe youââ¬â¢re a millionaire
or maybe you have no underwear
Maybe your life sucks and your beer is full of suds
maybe you just need some hugs
When you canââ¬â¢t seem to get around
when you have to look up to see down
When all you have to eat is one small spud
sounds like itââ¬â¢s time for a hug
If youââ¬â¢ve been dragged over the coals
if life is taking itââ¬â¢s toll
If youââ¬â¢re being chased by a thug
just open your arms and give him a hug
Sometimes people are very rude
just because theyââ¬â¢re in a bad mood
You should get up close and snug
Then reach out and give their ass a hug
When everyday all you see is bad omens
when life keeps feeding you lemons
When for the things you are owed, you never get paid
screw making lemonade . . . get a hug
Everybody wants one
everybody needs one
Some people, if asked, might just shrug
but baby, everybody needs
a hug!
