Leonard Cohen - Everybody Knows Live Lyrics

[Frida Hyvönen]
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
And 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
And everybody knows

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody's got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died

Everybody's talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long-stеm rose
And everybody knows

Evеrybody 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
And everybody knows you've been discreet
But, there were just so many people that you had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows

[Friday Hyvönen and First Aid Kit]
Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
And everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
And everybody knows

[Frida Hyvönen]
Everybody knows that it's now or never
Everybody knows that it's me or you
Everybody knows that you live forever
Ah, when you've done a line or two

Everybody knows that the deal is rotten
Or that Joe's still pickin' cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows

[First Aid Kit]
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

[Frida Hyvönen and First Aid Kit]
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 that 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
And everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
And everybody knows
