Ruby, My Dear Songtext
von Peter Mulvey

Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed Everybody knows the game is fix The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That′s how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows that the ship is seeking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody got this seenking feeling
Like their dog or their daddy died
Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long stem rose
Everybody knows Everybody knows Everybody knows That's how it goes
Everybody knows that you really love me
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that you were faithful
give or take a night or two
Everybody knows that you work discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet


Without your clothes
Everybody knows that is now or never
Everybody knows that is me or you
Everybody knows that you live forever
Once you have line or two
Everybody knows that whole deal is rotten
Old Black Joe′s still pickin' cotton
For your ribbons and bows Everybody... Everybody knows
Everybody knows that the Plague is coming
And 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 that the scene is dead
there′s gonna be a meter on your bed
And it will disclose
What everybody knows
Which is your in trouble
Everybody knows what you′ve been through
From the cross on top of Calvary
To the beach in Malibu
Everybody knows it's coming apart
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
Before it blows
Everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Everybody knows
