大家都知道（Everybody Knows）

好久没听过这么痛快淋漓的歌了，翻译的时候忍不住“与时俱进”的恶搞了一下，不过里面的讽刺放到今天仍然适用。

大家都知道

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
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows
骰子灌了铅，大家都知道
抛骰的时候大家都祈祷
战争已结束，大家都知道
胜负有定数，好人无好报
穷人会更穷，富人富到老
这就是世道
大家都知道

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
大家都知道，这船在漏水
大家都知道，船长很虚伪
事情到如今，大家都心碎
就像老爸或是爱犬做了鬼
人人为自己，大家都想要
一盒巧克力
再加点儿浪漫情调
大家都知道

Everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that youve been faithful
Ah give or take a night or two
Everybody knows youve been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows
大家都知道，你爱的不是我
大家都知道，你爱的是寂寞
大家都知道，你对我很忠贞
偶尔会劈腿，也是很傻很天真
大家都知道，你品行很端正
只是有太多应酬推不掉
就做做俯卧撑
大家都知道

Everybody knows, everybody knows
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows
大家都知道，大家都知道
这就是世道
大家都知道

Everybody knows, everybody knows
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows
大家都知道，大家都知道
这就是世道
大家都知道

And everybody knows that its now or never
Everybody knows that its me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
Ah when youve done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old black joes still pickin cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows
大家都知道，机会稍纵即逝
大家都要争个你死我活
大家都知道要想名垂青史
就要写上一两行小诗
大家都知道这交易真是狗屁
老黑奴耕地
出名的却是你
大家都知道

And everybody knows that the plague is coming
Everybody knows that its 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 theres gonna be a meter on your bed
That will disclose
What everybody knows
大家都知道瘟疫来了
大家都知道它来势汹汹
大家都知道亚当和夏娃
早已是昨日黄花
大家都知道那一幕早已落下
不过留神你床头的电脑
别把里面的东西
搞得大家都知道

And everybody knows that youre in trouble
Everybody knows what youve been through
From the bloody cross on top of calvary
To the beach of malibu
Everybody knows its coming apart
Take one last look at this sacred heart
Before it blows
And everybody knows
大家都知道你处境艰难
大家都知道你历尽苦难
从伽略山上滴血的十字架
到马利巴的海滩
大家都知道这一切终将土崩瓦解
别忘了对这圣洁的心做最后的告别
在最后的审判前
大家都知道

Everybody knows, everybody knows
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows
大家都知道，大家都知道
这就是世道
大家都知道

Everybody knows, everybody knows
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows
大家都知道，大家都知道
这就是世道
大家都知道

Everybody knows
大家都知道
