Elizabeth & The Catapult - Everybody Knows lyrics

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded Everybody knows 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 and the rich get rich That's how it goes Everybody knows Everybody knows the boat is leaking Everybody knows the captain lied Everybody has 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 pickin 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
