There’s Benefit in Everything

Late last night the singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen came over. He wanted to play me a new song that he had just written. He borrowed my guitar and started to sing:

I like cats,
cats are where it’s at,
K-k-k-k-kitty cats,
Eating all the rats.

I said that it was a good song because it was letting him know that he was tired and needed to go to bed.
