Everybody knows that the dice is loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed.
Everybody knows the war is over.
Everybody knows the good guys lost.
Everybody knows the fight was fixed :
the poor stay poor, therich get rich.
That's how is goes. Everybody knows.

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking.
Everybody knows the captain lied.
Everybody got this broken feeling
like their father 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
give or take a night or two.
Everybody knows you've ben desceet
but there were so many people you
just had to meet without your clothes and a long-stem rose.
And everybody knows.

Everybody knows that is now or never
Everybody knows that is me or you
V that you live forever
when you've done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten :
Old Black Joe still picking cotton for your ribbons and bows.
Everybody knows.

Everybody knows that the Plaque si coming.
Everybody knows that is moving fast.
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
- just a shining artifact of the passt.
Everybody knows the scene is dead,
but there's to be a metre on your bed
that will disclos
and Everybody knows.

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 Scared heart before it blows.
And Everybody knows.
