Lyrics
0:08Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
0:13Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
0:17Everybody knows that the war is over
0:22Everybody knows the good guys lost
0:26Everybody knows the fight was fixed
0:31The poor stay poor' the rich get rich
0:36That's how it goes
0:40Everybody knows
0:45Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
0:50Everybody knows that the captain lied
0:54Everybody got this broken feeling
0:59Like their father or their or their dog just died
1:03Everybody talking to their pockets
1:08Everybody wants a box of chocolates
1:12And a long stem rose
1:17Everybody knows
1:22Everybody knows that you love me baby
1:27Everybody knows that you really do
1:32Everybody knows that you've been faithful
1:33Ah give or take a night or two
1:41Everybody knows you've been discreet
1:45But there were so many people you just had to meet
1:49Without your clothes
1:54And everybody knows
1:59Everybody knows' everybody knows
2:07That's how it goes
2:12Everybody knows
2:17Everybody knows' everybody knows
2:26That's how it goes
2:31Everybody knows
2:40And everybody knows that it's now or never
2:45Everybody knows that it's me or you
2:49And everybody knows that you live forever
2:55Ah when you've done a line or two
2:58Everybody knows the deal is rotten
3:03Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton
3:07For your ribbons and bows
3:12And everybody knows
3:17And everybody knows that the Plague is coming
3:22Everybody knows that it's moving fast
3:26Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
3:31Are just a shining artifact of the past
3:35Everybody knows the scene is dead
3:39But there's gonna be a meter on your bed
3:45That will disclose
3:46What everybody knows
3:52And everybody knows that you're in trouble
3:56Everybody knows what you've been through
4:03From the bloody cross on top of Calvary
4:07To the beach of Malibu
4:13Everybody knows it's coming apart
4:16Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
4:21Before it blows
4:26And everybody knows
4:31Everybody knows' everybody knows
4:39That's how it goes
4:44Everybody knows
4:49Everybody knows' everybody knows
4:58That's how it goes
5:03Everybody knows
5:07Everybody knows' everybody knows
5:16That's how it goes
5:21Everybody knows
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed Everybody knows that the war is over Everybody knows the good guys lost Everybody knows the fight was fixed The poor stay poor' the rich get rich That's how it goes Everybody knows Everybody knows that the boat is leaking Everybody knows that the captain lied Everybody got this broken feeling Like their father or their or their dog just died Everybody talking to their pockets Everybody wants a box of chocolates And a long stem rose Everybody knows Everybody knows that you love me baby Everybody knows that you really do Everybody knows that you've been faithful Ah give or take a night or two Everybody knows you've been discreet But there were so many people you just had to meet Without your clothes And everybody knows Everybody knows' everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows Everybody knows' everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows And everybody knows that it's now or never Everybody knows that it's me or you And everybody knows that you live forever Ah when you've done a line or two Everybody knows the deal is rotten Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton For your ribbons and bows And everybody knows And everybody knows that the Plague is coming Everybody knows that it's moving fast Everybody knows that the naked man and woman Are just a shining artifact of the past Everybody knows the scene is dead But there's gonna be a meter on your bed That will disclose What everybody knows And everybody knows that you're in trouble Everybody knows what you've been through From the bloody cross on top of Calvary To the beach of Malibu Everybody knows it's coming apart Take one last look at this Sacred Heart Before it blows And everybody knows Everybody knows' everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows Everybody knows' everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows Everybody knows' everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows
