sunday night music....

[Track-T]

Last one today,Then I'll go take my meds....you need to be old for
this one....

"Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood
With his memories in a trunk
Passed this way an hour ago
With his friend, a jealous monk
He looked so immaculately frightful
As he bummed a cigarette
Then he went off sniffing drainpipes
And reciting the alphabet
Now you would not think to look at him
But he was famous long ago
For playing the electric violin"

Bob Dylan OOOOH

 

[Track-T]

Good job Putz,Bob dylan...Desolation Row


Now at midnight all the agents
And the superhuman crew
Come out and round up everyone
That knows more than they do
Then they bring them to the factory
Where the heart-attack machine
Is strapped across their shoulders
And then the kerosene
Is brought down from the castles
By insurance men who go
Check to see that nobody is escaping
To Desolation Row

 

[Track-T]

One more.....I can't help myself.


When the still sea conspires an armor
And her sullen and aborted
Currents breed tiny monsters
True sailing is dead

Awkward instant
And the first animal is jettisoned
Legs furiously pumping
Their stiff green gallop
And heads bob up
Poise
Delicate
Pause
Consent
In mute nostril agony
Carefully refined
And sealed over

The Doors, Horse Latitudes

I think my favorite dylan tune is the tombstone blues..The sun aint yellow its chicken! lololol

 

[Todd]

My turn. What is this and who sings it?

Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles

Subterranean Homesick Blues

 

[Track-T]

OK Todd, heres one...........


Ev'rybody's building the big ships and the boats,
Some are building monuments,
Others, jotting down notes,
Ev'rybody's in despair,
Ev'ry girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,
Ev'rybody's gonna jump for joy.
Come all without, come all within,
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn.

 

[Todd]

You left it in, The Mighty Quinn.

Subterranean Homesick Blues

My favorite Dylan song. I play it for the college kids at work and tell them its early rap. I also tell them square dancing is the first rap music.

 

[Telman2]

I also tell them square dancing is the first rap music.

Laughed my ass off at that line, I hope you don't mind if I borrow it.
