Democracy by Leonard Cohen

"Democracy"

"I'm sentimental, if you know what I mean
I love the country but I can't stand the scene.
And I'm neither left or right
I'm just staying home tonight,
getting lost in that hopeless little screen.
But I'm stubborn as those garbage bags
that Time cannot decay,
I'm junk but I'm still holding up
this little wild bouquet:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A."

- Leonard Cohen

Leonard Cohen's "Everybody Knows"

i was first introduced to leonard cohen during my time in vietnam in the late 60s... judy collins did a lot of his songs in what was certainly a more appealing voice than cohen's gravelly near-monotone... however, no one is a better interpreter of cohen than cohen himself... he's dark, he's often grim, and he's a truth-teller...

Everybody Knows
