Everybody Knows Liedtext

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
 
Everybody 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
Everybody knows you've been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows
 
Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
 
Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
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
Ah when you've done 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
 
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 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
 
And 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 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
Everybody knows
 
Oh everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
 
Everybody knows

Where does this version come from? It contains these lyrics:

" Everybody knows that Jesus was born in Bethlehem
" Without a single dime
" Everybody knows the homeless people
" Could be himself some other time "

The way I remember it, which is recorded other places (azlyrics, elyrics, lyricsfreak) is like this:

" And everybody knows that it's now or never
" Everybody knows that it's me or you
" And everybody knows that you live forever
: Ah when you've done a line or two "

This entry looked like it was merged with another one.
Are the lyrics now the correct ones?

In the provided video, the lyrics are sung like it is written here, I haven't heard other versions.
I don't really know what happened here, I see that I did a second French translation for this song, because the first one was translated following the other lyrics version (...Jesus was born in Betlehem...)
I think both could be correct, he sang it differently ?!

If there are different versions then they can be added as separate lyrics entries.

Okay. I've added something into the title field, so if anyone wants to add another version, feel free to do so.
I can then also ask the admins to move the translations to the lyrics they belong to.
