[Intro]
We're gonna do a song by um, Bob Dylan
And that's it
[Verse 1]
"There must be some kind of way out of here"
Oh, said the joker to the thief
I wanna tell you now
"No, there's just too much confusion
And I can't, no I can't get no relief
Oh, these businessmen, they all, they drink our wine
And the plowmen, well they dig my earth
And you know that, oh, none of them along the line
Show me what any of this is worth"
You know I wanted to see it now, didn't we? Didn't we?
[Verse 2]
"There ain't no reason to get excited"
Oh, the thief, you know he kindly spoke
Said now, "There are those among us right here, right now
Who still see life as some kind of joke
But you and I, we got there through that
I tell you that this, this is not our fate, no, no, no
Let us all not talk falsely now
You know the hour, well it's getting late"
[Verse 3]
I said all along the watchtower
Well, the princes kept the view
While the women, the women came and they went
Oh, and the barefoot servants too, that's me and that's you
But outside there's a cold distance
Listen for a wildcat, hear him growl
Two riders were approaching
This old earth began to howl
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Well, there are those among us right here, right now
Who still see life as some kind of a joke
All along the watchtower
Said, all along this watchtower
Those of you who still have eyes to see
Ears, hear for me
You will be saved by grace in the end
Saved by time if you don't understand
That your hatred is rooted in your fear
And your paranoia and your insecurities
Well, they don't belong here
You gotta take someone's hand
You gotta learn to make your stand
And it's one, two, three, four
Look at the sky if you don't let it die
Take my hand, take my hand, take my hand, ah
Don't you wanna touch?
Don't you wanna feel?
Don't you know that this is real?
Said reach out to me, reach out to me
Reach out to me, reach out to me
And save yourself, save yourself
Save, save, save, save
Save, save, save, save
Save, save, save
And you, and you, and you are a part of the world
You, you, you are a part of the world
You gotta learn to touch, feel
You know that you are real
I said learn, learn
You are a part of the world
[Outro]
Thanks y'all
You're the greatest
We had a really good time
Thanks
All Along the Watchtower was written by Bob Dylan.
