Everybody Knows (Album Version)

Everybody Knows - Elizabeth & The Catapult

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded

Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed

Everybody knows that the war is over

Everybody knows that the good guys lost

Everybody knows the fight was fixed

The poor stay poor and 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's got this broken feeling

Like their daddy or their dog just died

Everybody's talking to their pockets

Everybody wants a box of chocolates

And a long stem rose

Everybody knows

Cause everybody knows

Everybody knows

That's how it goes

Everybody knows

Cause everybody knows

Everybody knows

That's how it goes

Everybody knows

Everybody knows that it's now or never

Everybody knows that it's me or you

Everybody knows that you live forever

When you've done a line or two

Everybody knows that the deal is rotten

Old Black Joe's still picking cotton

For your ribbons and your bows

Everybody knows

Cause everybody knows that you're in trouble

Everybody knows what you've been through

From the bleeding frost of Calgary

To the beach in Malibu

Everybody knows you're coming apart

Take one last look at the sacred heart

Before it blows

Everybody knows

Cause everybody knows

Everybody knows

That's how it goes

Everybody knows

Cause everybody knows

Everybody knows

That's how it goes

Everybody knows

Everybody knows

Everybody knows

That's how it goes

Everybody knows
