Leonard Cohen - The Great Event lyrics

It's going to happen very soon. the great event which will end the horror. which will end the sorrow. next tuesday, when the sun goes down, i will play the moonlight sonata backwards. this will Se the effects of the world's mad plunge into suffering, for the last 200 million years. what a lovely night that would be. what a sigh of relief, as the senile robins become bright red again, and the retired nightingales, pick up their dusty tails, and a**ert the majesty of creation!
