【Everybody knows:每個人都知道】
每個人都知道骰子灌了鉛
每個人都擲了骰子 ，默默祈禱
每個人都知道戰爭結束了
每個人都知道好人輸了
每個人都知道這是場不公平的戰爭
—窮人還是窮，富人變富有
事情就會變那樣
每個人都知道
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
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
每個人都知道船艙進水了
每個人都知道船長說謊
每個人都覺得心碎
如同自己的父親或狗剛死了一樣
每個人都與自己的錢包說話
每個人都想要一盒巧克力
與一朵長莖玫瑰
每個人都知道
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.
寶貝，每個人都知道你愛我
每個人都知道你真的愛我
每個人都知道你一直沒有出軌
呃，不考慮那一兩個晚上的話
每個人都知道你一直很自制
但你脫去衣裳，要見的人
是那麼多
每個人都知道
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
每個人都知道錯過現在以後就沒機會了
每個人都知道不是我就是你
每個人都知道當你寫了一行或兩行詩
你會永遠活下去
每個人都知道合約爛透了—
老黑奴仍在為你的緞帶與領結
挑揀棉花
每個人都知道
And everybody knows that it's now or never
Everybody knows that it's me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
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
每個人都知道疾病將降臨
每個人都知道疾病將會迅速擴散
每個都知道裸男與裸女
只是過去榮耀的工藝品
每個人都知道現場演出已經死去
但你的床上還會留下節奏
這將揭露每個人都知道的事
And everybody knows that the Plague is coming
Everybody knows that it's moving fast
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman-
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
每個人都知道你陷入焦慮
每個人都知道你經歷過什麼
從各各他山血淋淋的十字架上(註1)
到馬里布的海灘上
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
每個人都知道耶穌的聖心將分崩離析(註2)
再看最後一眼吧
在它爆炸之前
每個人都知道
Everybody knows it's coming apart
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
Before it blows
And everybody knows
