Wrote this thing on a impulse. The song's by Fairport Convention.

	It's cool!  Great song -- just thought I'd point out that it's
actually by Canadian poet and songwriter extraordinaire (what can I say,
I'm a fan...) Leonard Cohen.  Off of his last CD, The Future...

Well, yes. But Fairport Convention did a cover of it, and that's the one I
wrote the fic from.

I love Leonard Cohen's songs as long as anyone but Leonard Cohen is
singing them. ;) Check out the 'I'm Your Fan' tribute album; covers by
REM, the Pixes, Nick Cave (hi Sean!), and several others.
