Something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
Bob Dylan

You know it balances on your head
Just like a mattress balances
On a bottle of wine
Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat.

They'll stone you when you're riding in your car,
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
Yes, but I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.

Absolutely Sweet Marie |
In the dime stores and bus stations,
People talk of situations,
Read books, repeat quotations,
Draw conclusions on the wall.

She knows there's no success like failure
And that failure's no success at all.

Hey! Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me.
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me.
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.
Bob Dylan

Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

Señor, señor, do you know where we're headin'?
Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
