| [00:15.27] | Everybody knows that the dice are loaded, |
| [00:19.05] | Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed, |
| [00:22.77] | Everybody knows the war is over, |
| [00:26.38] | Everybody knows the good guys lost, |
| [00:30.06] | Everybody knows the fight was fixed, |
| [00:33.84] | The poor stay poor,the rich get rich, |
| [00:37.06] | That's how it goes, |
| [00:41.27] | everybody knows, |
| [00:44.75] | Everybody knows that the boat is leaking, |
| [00:48.40] | Everybody knows that the captain lied, |
| [00:52.08] | Everybody got this broken feeling, |
| [00:56.08] | Like their father or their dog just died, |
| [00:59.29] | Everybody talking to their pockets, |
| [01:02.96] | Everybody wants a box of chocolates, |
| [01:06.24] | And a long stem rose, |
| [01:10.22] | everybody knows, |
| [01:13.75] | Everybody knows that you love me, baby, |
| [01:17.38] | Everybody knows that you really do |
| [01:20.91] | Everybody knows that you've been faithful, |
| [01:25.15] | Ah, give or take a night or two, |
| [01:28.06] | Everybody knows you've been discreet, |
| [01:31.45] | But there were so many people you just had to meet, |
| [01:34.92] | Without your clothes and everybody knows, |
| [01:42.61] | Everybody knows, everybody knows, |
| [01:49.22] | That's how it goes, everybody knows, |

| [02:11.04] | And everybody knows that it's now or never, |
| [02:14.76] | Everybody knows that it's me or you, |
| [02:18.18] | And everybody knows that you live forever, |
| [02:21.88] | Ah, when you've done a line or two, |
| [02:25.05] | Everybody knows the deal is rotten, |
| [02:28.63] | Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton, |
| [02:32.43] | For your ribbons and bows |
| [02:35.72] | and everybody knows, |
| [02:39.13] | And everybody knows that the plague is coming, |
| [02:42.90] | Everybody knows that it's moving fast, |
| [02:46.41] | Everybody knows that the naked man and woman, |
| [02:49.84] | Are just a shining artifact of the past, |
| [02:53.23] | Everybody knows the scene is dead, |
| [02:56.55] | But there's gonna be a meter on your bed, |
| [02:59.88] | That will disclose what everybody knows, |
| [03:07.08] | And everybody knows that you're in trouble, |
| [03:10.86] | Everybody knows what you've been through, |
| [03:14.41] | From the bloody cross on top of Calvary, |
| [03:18.45] | To the beach of Malibu, |
| [03:21.42] | Everybody knows it's coming apart, |
| [03:24.87] | Take one last look at this sacred heart, |
| [03:28.34] | Before it blows and everybody knows, |
| [03:36.33] | And everybody knows, everybody knows, |
| [03:43.37] | That's how it goes, everybody knows, |
