master song

• bir leonard cohen parçası. sözleri:
  i believe that you heard your master sing
  when i was sick in bed.
  i suppose that he told you everything
  that i keep locked away in my head.
  your master took you travelling,
  well at least that's what you said.
  and now do you come back to bring
  your prisoner wine and bread?
  you met him at some temple, where
  they take your clothes at the door.
  he was just a numberless man in a chair
  who'd just come back from the war.
  and you wrap up his tired face in your hair
  and he hands you the apple core.
  then he touches your lips now so suddenly bare
  of all the kisses we put on some time before.
  
  and he gave you a german shepherd to walk
  with a collar of leather and nails,
  and he never once made you explain or talk
  about all of the little details,
  such as who had a word and who had a rock,
  and who had you through the mails.
  now your love is a secret all over the block,
  and it never stops not even when your master fails.
  
  and he took you up in his aeroplane,
  which he flew without any hands,
  and you cruised above the ribbons of rain
  that drove the crowd from the stands.
  then he killed the lights in a lonely lane
  and, an ape with angel glands,
  erased the final wisps of pain
  with the music of rubber bands.
  
  and now i hear your master sing,
  you kneel for him to come.
  his body is a golden string
  that your body is hanging from.
  his body is a golden string,
  my body has grown numb.
  oh now you hear your master sing,
  your shirt is all undone.
  
  and will you kneel beside this bed
  that we polished so long ago,
  before your master chose instead
  to make my bed of snow?
  your eyes are wild and your knuckles are red
  and you're speaking far too low.
  no i can't make out what your master said
  before he made you go.
  
  then i think you're playing far too rough
  for a lady who's been to the moon;
  i've lain by this window long enough
  to get used to an empty room.
  and your love is some dust in an old man's cough
  who is tapping his foot to a tune,
  and your thighs are a ruin, you want too much,
  let's say you came back some time too soon.
  
  i loved your master perfectly
  i taught him all that he knew.
  he was starving in some deep mystery
  like a man who is sure what is true.
  and i sent you to him with my guarantee
  i could teach him something new,
  and i taught him how you would long for me
  no matter what he said no matter what you'd do.
  
  i believe that you heard your master sing
  while i was sick in bed,
  i'm sure that he told you everything
  i must keep locked away in my head.
  your master took you travelling,
  well at least that's what you said,
  and now do you come back to bring
  your prisoner wine and bread?
• 1968 cikisli songs of leonard cohen albumunde yer alir...
• en güzel cohen parçalarından biridir.
• beck tarafından leonard cohen şarkıları projesi kapsamında coverlanıp bammmbaşka bir hal almış şarkı. orjinali ne kadar bunalımsa^*, beck'inki de o kadar "oooh yandan yandan". "master" derken master of puppets'ı da anmış bu arada beck iyice ilginçleştirmiş şarkıyı.
