A Singer Must Die - Leonard Cohen[00:00:00]
Now the courtroom is quiet [00:00:06]
But who will confess [00:00:09]
Is it true you betrayed us [00:00:12]
The answer is Yes [00:00:15]
Then read me the list[00:00:17]
Of the crimes that are mine [00:00:20]
I will ask for the mercy[00:00:23]
That you love to decline [00:00:25]
And all the ladies go moist [00:00:27]
And the judge has no choice [00:00:31]
A singer must die[00:00:34]
For the lie in his voice [00:00:36]
And I thank you [00:00:40]
I thank you for doing your duty [00:00:42]
You keepers of truth [00:00:46]
You guardians of beauty [00:00:49]
Your vision is right [00:00:52]
My vision is wrong [00:00:55]
I'm sorry for smudging the air[00:00:57]
With my song [00:01:01]
Oh the night it is thick [00:01:15]
My defences are hid[00:01:18]
In the clothes of a woman[00:01:21]
I would like to forgive [00:01:23]
In the rings of her silk [00:01:27]
In the hinge of her thighs [00:01:30]
Where I have to go begging[00:01:33]
In beauty's disguise [00:01:36]
Oh goodnight goodnight [00:01:39]
My night after night [00:01:42]
My night after night after night [00:01:45]
After night after night [00:01:49]
Am I so afraid that I listen to you [00:01:55]
Your sun glassed protectors[00:02:02]
They do that to you [00:02:05]
It's their ways to detain [00:02:08]
Their ways to disgrace [00:02:11]
Their knee in your balls[00:02:14]
And their fist in your face [00:02:16]
Yes and long live the state[00:02:19]
By whoever it's made [00:02:22]
Sir I didn't see nothing [00:02:24]
I was just getting home late[00:02:26]
