Bob Dylan — Dead Man Dead Man

[Verse 1] Uttering idle words from a reprobate mind Clinging to strange promises, dying on the vine Never being able to separate the good from the bad Ooh, I can’t stand it, I can’t stand it It’s making me feel so sad [Chorus] Dead man, dead man When will you arise? Cobwebs in your mind Dust upon your eyes [Verse 2] Satan got you by the heel, there’s a bird’s nest in your hair Do you have any faith at all? Do you have any love to share? The way that you hold your head, cursing God with every move Ooh, I can’t stand it, I can’t stand it What are you trying to prove? [Chorus] [Verse 3] The glamour and the bright lights and the politics of sin The ghetto that you build for me is the one you end up in The race of the engine that overrules your heart Ooh, I can’t stand it, I can’t stand it Pretending that you’re so smart [Chorus] [Verse 4] What are you trying to overpower me with, the doctrine or the gun? My back is already to the wall, where can I run? The tuxedo that you’re wearing, the flower in your lapel Ooh, I can’t stand it, I can’t stand it You want to take me down to hell [Chorus]
