Everybody Knows Lyrics - The Essential Leonard Cohen - Leonard Cohen

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 

 

Everybody knows, everybody knows 

That's how it goes 

Everybody knows 

 

Everybody knows, everybody knows 

That's how it goes 

Everybody knows 

 

Everybody knows, everybody knows 

That's how it goes 

Everybody knows 

 

Everybody knows
