A SINGER MUST DIE

LEONARD COHEN

Tonalité :

Now the courtr oom is quiet but who w ill confess?

Is it tr ue you betrayed us? The answer is "yes"

Then r ead me the list of the cr imes that are mine

I will ask for the mercy that you love to d ecline

And all the la dies go moist and the ju dge has no choice

A si nger must die for the li e in his voice

And I th ank you I thank you for doing your duty

You ke epers of truth you g uardians of beauty

Your vision is right my vi sion is wrong

I'm s orry for smudging the a ir with my song

/ / /

Oh the n ight it is thick my d efences are hid

In the cl othes of a woman I would like to forgive

In the rings of her silk in the hi nge of her thighs

Where I have to go begging in be auty's disguise

Oh goodn ight goodnight my ni ght after night

My n ight after night after nig ht after night after night

I am s o afraid that I listen to you

Your s un glassed protectors they do that to you

It's their ways to detain their wa ys to disgrace

Their k nee in your balls and their fi st in your face

Yes and lo ng live the state by whoe ver it's made

Sir I d idn't see nothing I was ju st getting home late
