Leonard Cohen - The Partisan (Songs From a Room, 1969).
Sometimes I remember
that I have been chosen
to perfect all men
the fireflies remind me
the stream beside my shack
If I was meant to be a poet
I would not be able to blow
the actual flawless smokerings
for which I am renowned
I would be distracted
by the possible beauty of my pen
but I am not
I would lose myself
I would have lost myself
with the women
I so relentlessly pursued
but I did not
I was meant to be
the seed of your new society
I was meant to be
the courtless invisible king
I am that
the clearest example of royalty
who serves you tonight
as he makes a bed for the dog
and the fireflies burn
at their different heights
that I have been chosen
to perfect all men
the fireflies remind me
the stream beside my shack
If I was meant to be a poet
I would not be able to blow
the actual flawless smokerings
for which I am renowned
I would be distracted
by the possible beauty of my pen
but I am not
I would lose myself
I would have lost myself
with the women
I so relentlessly pursued
but I did not
I was meant to be
the seed of your new society
I was meant to be
the courtless invisible king
I am that
the clearest example of royalty
who serves you tonight
as he makes a bed for the dog
and the fireflies burn
at their different heights
