It’s right on target, it’s so direct
Sometimes I think that Bob Dylan is a member of a secret group of psychologists and mind control experts — a group researching the most direct lyrical pathway to the innermost parts of the brain. This team of reclusive psychologists have been devising and testing lyrical experiments on us for the past four and a half decades.
One day this group will release their research to the general public, and an impeccably dressed, clearly articulate Bob Dylan will start appearing on the Leno show to explain what he’s really been up to all of these years. We’ll all have a big laugh, and then we’ll promptly lynch the bastard.
“Standin’ on the gallows with my head in a noose / Any minute now I’m expecting all hell to break loose…”
