Was posted on r/con, thought it was an interesting verse aswell.
[Verse 5] They got some serious people out there man They can ring your bell and show you how to hold your tongue They don't come to party man They kill babies in the crib and say only the good die young They don't believe in mercy and judgment on them is something you'll never see They can put your face on a postage stamp Turn your home into a armed camp Anyway they want you That's the way you'll be
Doesn't let me edit the OP atm lol
[Verse 5]
They got some serious people out there man
They can ring your bell and show you how to hold your tongue
They don't come to party man
They kill babies in the crib and say only the good die young
They don't believe in mercy and judgment on them is something you'll never see
They can put your face on a postage stamp
Turn your home into a armed camp
Anyway they want you
That's the way you'll be
What were the topics being discussed in the cryptic conversation filmed during Dylan and John Lennon's first meeting? Where's the honor among thieves?
1.The Prison Ghostwriting Industry ala Johnny Cash
Their own ghostwriting experiences with each other. Sharing recognition of dirty management, and reference to Barry McGuire as a controlled asset as were they.
Recognition of the fact that Mama Cass Elliott was pregnant and wondering if John was the father. (Cass was party hostess in Laurel Canyon).
Live Action Role Players hoping to gather no moss.
Some actually develop a talent along the way, more or less.
All the same, roads are paved and arrangements made to secure fame and fortune.

Real 'folk' get other arrangements (see mk victim John Butler Train aka Phil Ochs)

Rolling Stone No mas
IMO ---- Brad Skistimas blows Dylan out of the water ---- and actually sounds good singing his own songs.
