Bug#719017: fortunes: incorrect lyrics to Leonard Cohen's Everybody Knows



Package: fortunes
Version: 1:1.99.1-4
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

The songs-poems section contains the following fortune:

######### fortune start
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded.  Everybody rolls with their
fingers crossed.  Everybody knows 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 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 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, 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.

And everybody knows 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 you ribbons and bows.  And everybody knows.
    	-- Leonard Cohen, "Everybody Knows"
######### fortune end

The last two verses of the song are missing:

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.
