Don’t be so naïve mufc.
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, if you’ve got a bob or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten, ol’ Black Joe’s still picking cotton
For his ribbons and bows, 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 artefact 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 we’re in trouble, everybody knows what we’ve been through
From the painful deaths that have so far happened, apart from the lucky few
Everybody knows it’s coming apart, take one last look at your ailing heart
Before it blows… Everybody knows
That’s how it goes, everybody knows.
