LYRICS to the» EVERYBODY KNOWS» Parody
Everybody knows that he’s a racist
Everybody knows the reasons why
Everybody knows that he said shitholes
And which buttons that he wants to try
Everybody knows he has three TVs
So many cheeseburgers he just has to eat
Where he gets those
Everybody knows
Everybody knows there’s no collusion
Everybody smiles when the camera’s on
Everybody knows the game is over
Everybody knows the fake guy won
Everybody knows his temper’s quick
The rich get richer, the poor get sick
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows who’s does the leaking
Everybody knows how much he lies
Everybody’s got this broken feeling
Like their country or their dog just died
The one percent fill their pockets
Where does Wolff send a box of chocolates?
Now I suppose
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows
(repeat)
Everybody knows that he’s in trouble
Everybody knows it’s time to go
From the plaque at the Liberty Lady
To the Mar-a-Lago beach below
Everybody knows every woman’s name
And who it is that they say they blame
What they all disclosed
Now everybody knows
Everybody knows he misses Porter
Everybody knows it’s a parade he needs
Everybody knows what the NRA did
by increasing his campaign proceeds
Everybody knows Hope told white lies
and the building on Fifth was a buy
Who does Jared owe?
Everybody knows
Everybody knows what he said to Billy
Everybody knows Rex was fired by tweet
Everybody knows Bolton’s a war-hawk
And Karen said Donnie’s very sweet
Everybody knows his nickname’s Spanky
And he is known to be quite cranky
on a TV show
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
HISTORY OF THE SOURCE MATERIAL
«Everybody Knows»
Song by Leonard Cohen and Sharon Robinson
from the album I’m Your Man
Released February 1988
«Everybody Knows» is known for its somber tone and repetition of the title at the beginning of most verses. Featuring phrases such as «Everybody knows that the dice are loaded» and «Everybody knows that the good guys lost», «Everybody Knows» has been variously described by critics as «bitterly pessimistic» yet funny, or, more strongly, a «bleak prophecy about the end of the world as we know it.»The lyrics include references to AIDS, false flag wars, social problems, and relationship and religious issues.[5]
«Everybody Knows» has been widely used in television and film. Allan Moyle’s 1990 film Pump Up the Volume featured the song prominently.
Cohen’s original version was also featured prominently in Atom Egoyan’s 1994 film Exotica, as the theme music of exotic dancer Christina (Mia Kirshner) when she performs at the club of the film’s title.
Don Henley’s version is heard in episode 219 of the television series Judging Amy, which aired in 2001. Later, the Concrete Blonde version was featured in the third episode of the first season of Dirty Sexy Money entitled the «Italian Banker».
«Everybody Knows» has also been used in a June 2008 anti-smoking advertisement commissioned by the New South Wales government in Australia with the theme «everybody knows smoking causes these diseases … yet you still do it».
A cover of the song by Sigrid plays during the opening credits of the film «Justice League.»
