Everybody knows that the dice are 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, 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 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
And everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes, everybody knows Everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes, oh, everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes, everybody knows Everybody knows
Oh, the sisters of mercy They are not departed or gone They were waiting for me When I thought that I just can't go on
And they brought me their comfort And later they brought me this song Oh, I hope you run into them You, who've been traveling so long
Yes, you who must leave everything That you cannot control It begins with your family But soon it comes around to your soul
Well, I've been where you're hanging And I think, I can see how you're pinned When you're not feeling holy Your loneliness says, that you've sinned
Well, they lay down beside me I made my confessions to them They touched both my eyes And I touched the dew on their hem
If your life is a leaf That the seasons tear off and condemn They will bind you with love That is graceful and green as a stem
When I left they were sleeping And I hope you run into them soon Don't turn on the lights You can read their address by the moon
And you won't make me jealous If I find that they've sweetened your night We weren't lovers like that And besides it would still be all right We weren't lovers like that And besides it would still be all right
