[00:02.640]Field commander cohen,
[00:05.550]he was our most important spy.
[00:12.900]Wounded in the line of duty,
[00:17.940]Parachuting acid into diplomatic cocktail parties,
[00:27.680]Urging fidel castro to abandon fields and castles.
[00:35.970]Leave it all and like a man,
[00:40.620]Come back to nothing special,
[00:45.250]Such as waiting rooms and ticket lines,
[00:49.080]and Silver bullet suicides,
[00:52.520]And messianic ocean tides,
[00:55.940]And racial roller-coaster rides
[00:59.560]And other forms of boredom advertised as poetry.
[01:12.980]I know you need your sleep now,
[01:16.480]I know your lifes been hard.
[01:22.320]But many men have fallen
[01:25.190]Where you promised to stand guard.
[01:30.640]I never asked but I heard that you
[01:35.270]cast your lot along with the poor.
[01:42.280]Have I overheard your prayer,
[01:47.150]That you be this and nothing more
[01:51.120]Than just some grateful faithful womans
[01:56.980]favourite singing millionaire,
[02:00.980]The patron saint of envy and the grocer of despair,
[02:12.220]Working for the yankee dollar.
[02:41.800]I know you need your sleep now
[02:45.500]I know your life's been hard
[02:50.490]But many men are falling
[02:53.420]Where you promised to stand guard
[02:58.540]Ah, lover come and lie with me,
[03:03.500]if my lover is who you really are,
[03:10.290]And be your sweetest self awhile
[03:15.410]until I ask for more, my child.
[03:19.220]Then let the other selves be wrong,
[03:23.970]yeah, let them manifest and come
[03:30.440]Till love is pierced and love is hung,
[03:34.930]Til every taste is on the tongue
[03:39.780]And every kind of freedom done, then oh,
[03:45.380]Oh my love
[03:49.470]Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love.
