I AM FRANCK BLANC

BAYC By Leonard Cohen

Eyes closed walking down the grassy hill
sunlight guiding me by warmth to you
i want you to meet me in the world

yeah 

	smell like cut grass and spring softball field
screams and laughter shoulders shimmying
i do want to be part of the world

yeah

	if you were not careful
they could fool you into
thinking it's the world

The World

if i'm dead then i won't be around anymore 
with thistle woven crown
i hear there's fields of lavender
where you can just lie down

and the farmer says
go away, en y vas, go away
i love you, je t'aime
i love you, je t'aime

if i'm gone then i won't be alone anymore
a whisper in the air
deliver me to fields of lavender
with flowers in my hair

and the farmer says
go away, en y vas, go away
i love you, je t'aime
i love you, je t'aime

and the farmer says
go away, en y vas, go away
i love you, je t'aime
i love you, je t'aime

DEAD AROUND II

i've only got myself to blame
for words that were unsaid
i've simply stolen yesterday
and taken it out of your head

ooh you don't need me anymore

ooh you've got someone else to work your dough

ooh what if the pizza comes out wrong

ooh i think it's just a mess

i apologized for everything i've ever done or said
i left the earth and vanished in the distant setting sun
but vacillating tendencies to wish and not regret
left my spirit wandering in and out your closet

Bad Pizza

i retired into my bottle
i retired into my frown
i retired in germantown

eat sandwich from otto's
pick up liquor from lawlors
wake up to quiet countryside

i retired into my mazda
i retired into my couch
i retired into my closet
i retired upside down
i retired in germantown 

ice cream from stewart's
walk the trail of stockport
sleep by the river side

Germantown Retirement

my way is paved
along the ocean gates
all of the ways to be a loser

insurance policy
my life is over
the contract that we signed
dropped to the bottom of the sea

Ocean Gates
