Bob Dylan – Is Your Love in Vain?

By Martin Goldstein, February 27, 2010 1:02 am

Is Your Love In Vain?

Do you love me, or are you just extending goodwill?
Do you need me half as bad as you say, or are you just feeling guilt?
I’ve been burned before and I know the score
So you won’t hear me complain.
Will I be able to count on you
Or is your love in vain?

Are you so fast that you cannot see that I must have solitude?
When I am in the darkness, why do you intrude?
Do you know my world, do you know my kind
Or must I explain?
Will you let me be myself
Or is your love in vain?

Well I’ve been to the mountain and I’ve been in the wind,
I’ve been in and out of happiness.
I have dined with kings, I’ve been offered wings
And I’ve never been too impressed.

All right, I’ll take a chance, I will fall in love with you
If I’m a fool you can have the night, you can have the morning too.
Can you cook and sew, make flowers grow,
Do you understand my pain?
Are you willing to risk it all
Or is your love in vain?

Bob Dylan, 1978

And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

By Martin Goldstein, December 24, 2009 7:30 am

This post is for Nurse Crystal – Proof that I am not an atheist. I live in the Ocean of God (the Nameless One) and witness the miraculous rebirth of love.

There is the True Fire (Aish Emet) of the Holy Oneness as designed and expressed in the sacred, imperfect form by lovely, precious human beings.

Jeff Buckley sings Hallelujah – song by Leonard Cohen

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you
To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Baby I have been here before
I know this room, I’ve walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you.
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know
What’s really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain
I don’t even know the name
But if I did, well really, what’s it to you?
There’s a blaze of light
In every word
It doesn’t matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn’t much
I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch
I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come to fool you
And even though
It all went wrong
I’ll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Big Coconuts

By Poetry Hammer, December 19, 2009 11:14 am

Song by Poetry Hammer, performed by Martin Goldstein and Design Argument at the Saint Menachem Mendel Centre for Rehabilitation and Harlotry

I got a thousand dollar suit
And a mighty big cheroot
But I gotta get through to you
Don’t want your toodle-oo

Sentimental fool around with you
Sad sack ain’t new to you
Yeah I’m gonna be true to you
Watch your Daddy get zooed

‘Cause you got big coconuts
Crazy big coconuts
Cruel you

You were Cassandra in my high school
Pollyanna in my swimming pool
I can’t listen to the daily news
I’m back in Ghana with my pito booze

I send a message with my sports car
I got a shiny new sushi bar
I can’t hear you when you live so far
I want to take you to my flower jar

Yes you got big coconuts
Crazy big coconuts
Cruel you

Fat cat in the chat room
Got tanked with Willy
Had tea with Tilly
Now I’m point blank silly

I own a fashion institute
Sloop Daddy want to shmooze with you
Don’t panic, keep your fuse
Look at Daddy’s new shoes

Ain’t you got big coconuts
Crazy big coconuts
Cruel you

(I am a sailor of the zodiac,
I ain’t no maniac)

The Chairman of the Board and Dino listen to “Big Coconuts” at Saint Menachem Mendel’s Centre for Rehabilitation and Harlotry
