In praise of Leonard Cohen! This is dedicated to my fellow soulmate, Jerome.
Like a hole in a pocket,
I have tried in my way
To be like Len,
Like a germ in a dish,
Like a scale on a fish,
I have saved all my
Microbes for Zen...
And Suzanne takes you
Down, down to the zoo
Where she feeds you
To the panda that
Comes all the way from China,
As if you were bamboo,
But that's why you want to
Be there,
With the Chinese bear,
And Suzanne, too...
Goodbye, Everyone,
It's been a long day,
Now night is coming
And it's time to play
The hits of Leonard Cohen...
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Song from a bedsit
Like a bulb in a socket,Like a hole in a pocket,
I have tried in my way
To be like Len,
Like a germ in a dish,
Like a scale on a fish,
I have saved all my
Microbes for Zen...
And Suzanne takes you
Down, down to the zoo
Where she feeds you
To the panda that
Comes all the way from China,
As if you were bamboo,
But that's why you want to
Be there,
With the Chinese bear,
And Suzanne, too...
Goodbye, Everyone,
It's been a long day,
Now night is coming
And it's time to play
The hits of Leonard Cohen...
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
