Come Monday...Hallelujah

“Come Monday…” is a weekly series that will involve a review of, or commentary about, websites, movies, documentaries, television shows, sports, music, and whatever else may tickle my fancy at the time. Be assured that these reviews will be generally positive, as in accordance to the Jimmy Buffett song “Come Monday.” This is subject to change, however. In fact, I would be most derelict in my duties to neglect going on a rant every once in a while. For rants promote change, and change can be good—right? Therefore, since good is generally considered as being a positive force in 99.3% of the parallel universes that I am aware of, even a rant could be considered as being something positive, and a genuine hissy-fit would be even better (so I’m told).

I have had a lot more “fun” the past couple of days than I was allowed and enabled to handle. So, there was nothing left to prepare what I wanted to post this time around. It will happen. That is, unless our Heavenly Father has other plans, of course.

In the meantime, I hope you will enjoy one of the finest songs ever composed. Be assured that there is more going on in the lyrics than can be naturally heard. Whether or not Mr. Cohen intended this, I have not been told, but that does not make it any less true.

Now I’ve hear 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 minor fall

The major rift

The baffled king

Hallelujah

Your faith was strong

But you needed proof

You saw her bathing

On the roof

Her beauty

And the moonlight

Overthrew ya

She tied you

To a kitchen chair

She broke your throne

And she cut your hair

And from your lips

She drew the

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 ya

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
