Artist/Band: Leonard Cohen
Lyrics for Song: We Told You So
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Leonard Cohen



(Written By Cohen, Performed In "Night Magic")



(Angels) We told you so

We told you dear

You didn't have

To come here



The human life

Is full of quirks

We can't work it out

Nothing works



It's a lemon

This mechanic

Live, love, suffer

Die and panic



It lives, it loves

Suffers and dies

It eats cow's meat

And apple pies



Dumb, dumb, dumb

And full of fear

Anxiety and strife..

This is the human life!



...We have many duties still

Much gold and silver light to spill

On anxious boys and frightened girls like you...
