Great write up. Dylan has a wealth of poignant lyrics. The Times They Are a-Changin' containing some of his best:
The deputy sheriffs, the soldiers, the governors get paid
And the marshals and cops get the same
But the poor white man’s used in the hands of them all like a tool
He’s taught in his school
From the start by the rule
That the laws are with him
To protect his white skin
To keep up his hate
So he never thinks straight
’Bout the shape that he’s in
But it ain’t him to blame
He’s only a pawn in their game
Another great example. That's an amazing song too.
Yeah, I mean, it's Dylan. There's a reason he's been so revered. My fav though is probably Don't think twice... That whole song is a fantastic dig.
Yes it sure is. So cutting and using only words.
