We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
An old(er) man reminisces about real and imaginary times. Lyrics here. One line:
They got outta here any way they could Cold rain can give you the shivers they went down the Ohio, the Cumberland, the Tennessee, all the rest of them rebel rivers...
"Romeo, he said to Juliet, you got a poor complexion
it don't give you an appearance or a youthful touch
Juliet said back to Romeo,
why don't you just shove off,
if it bothers you so much"
Another nice line. Yep, that's a good song. Last line too is real:
"Not always easy kicking someone up
got to wait awhile, it can be an unpleasant task
sometimes somebody wants you to give something up
And tears or not, it's too much to ask."
The two verses before that talk about 'dreams' --which leads me to recommend a recent earbug of mine --a song of a similar vein --what would you call it --a reminiscence of thoughts, of seen plays vivid enough to be there for replay in the mind's eye, whenever repose will offer up the chance. "Wolfman of Del Rio" is Terry Allen from 1979 --but it's pretty new to me, having just discovered the phenomenally good album. The 'dream' line:
"It most certainly seems
Some disease of the dreams
Has been goin 'round"
It really begins at 3:00 in --after setting the scene --you'll see. It's a teenage reminiscence --a teenaged viewpoint of the world --without the pose. The wolfman was an AM radio DJ from the 50s -60s --and a 'vinyl tuck and roll' is a sort of fluffed up aftermarket car seat upholstery ultra cool back then.

Dunno if you meant the Dylan or the Allen, but it don't cost much to say 'thanks' either way. Note the Allen song like now comes from towards the end of (i wanted to say 'the last year of' but dasn't chance the jinx) an extraordinarily downbeat political term.
