  S1:
  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

  S2:
  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

  S3:
  Everybody knows that you love me baby 

  Everybody knows that you really do 

  Everybody knows that you've been faithful 

  Oh, 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  

  Everybody knows

  S4:
  And everybody knows that it's now or never 

  Everybody knows that it's me or you 

  And everybody knows that you live forever 

  When you've done a line or two 

  Everybody knows the deal is rotten 

  Old Black Joe's still picking cotton 

  For your ribbons and bows  

  And everybody knows

  S5:
  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

  S6:
  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  

  Everybody knows
