Alright, that's Dave from Chicago
This is from the Mojave desert
ย
"There must be some way out of here"
Said the joker to the thief
"There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief"
Businessmen, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None of them along the line
Know what any of it is worth
ย
"No reason to get excited"
The thief, he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour is getting late
ย
All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too
Outside in the distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
The wind began to howl
ย
