Everybody Knows

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded- everybody rolls with their fingers crossed- everybody knows that 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

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

Leonard Cohen
