I heard this song on the movie Pump Up the Volume. The main character would play it at the start of his pirate
radio station. I just loved the unique voice of the singer. I bought the soundtrack mostly for this song, but it only has
the Concrete Blonde version. Not a bad version, but not the one I wanted. Don't you hate that?

Everybody knows the dice are loaded,
Everybody rolls with they're fingers crossed,
Everybody knows that the war
is over,
Everybody knows that the good guys lost,
Everybody knows the fight is fixed,
The poor stay poor and the
rich get rich,
That's how it goes, everybody knows.
Everybody knows the boat is sinking,
Everybody knows that
the captin lied,
Everybody's got this broken feeling,
like they're momma or they're dog just died,
Everybody's hands
are in they're pockets,
Everybody wants a box of chocolates and a long stemmed rose,
Everybody knows.
Everybody
knows
Everybody knows
That's how it goes,
Everybody knows.
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
That's the
way it goes,
Everybody knows.
Everybody knows that it's now or never,
Everybody knows that it's me or you,
Everybody
knows that you're here forever,
If you've had 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.
Everybody knows you love me baby,
Everybody knows that you really do,
Everybody knows
that you've been faithful,
Give or take a night or two,
Everybody knows you've been discreet,
So many people you
had to meet without your clothes,
And everybody knows,
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Thats how it goes,
Everybody
knows.
