#411. I Will Superempower

Coincidentally, the number 411 refers to information.  

And 4:11 is a sign to remind you that you're exactly where you need to be.  And there is always a reason for everything which happens on your journey through life.  But I think of it more in terms of directory assistance in the realm of generational warfare.

Also a coincidence, yesterday was Bob Dylan's 80th birthday.  

Maybe, just maybe, this stuff's not a coinky dink.


Yinz were warned.

 

I Will Superempower
sonofsaf

There must have been a dominipede
You know cyber’s lookin’ weak
I’m usin’ confusion
Give ‘em what they don’t seek

Internet, it isn’t fine
The net's all scorched earth
I know this sounds out of line
Don’t mean to sound so untoward
Hey, hey

And so yinz are all invited
The weak, and all the woke
I don’t like to make a big fuss
The last straw for a line of coke
But, uh, but you and I, Trump is so fat
Just watch him masturbate
He looks like an orange prolapsin’ cow
Stampedes were your fate, hey

Hey

I will superempower
Shitstorms caused a few
Killing without weapons made a dent
Artificial Jew
Well, uh, denied the reconnaissance
The Orange Prolapse scowled
U.S. encroaching
Donald Trump was smelling foul, hey

I will superempower

I will superempower


All Along The Watchtower
Grateful Dead

There must be some kind of way outta here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief

Business men, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody offered his word
Hey, hey

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, uh, but you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us stop talkin' falsely now
The hour's getting late, hey

Hey

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too
Well, uh, outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl, hey

All along the watchtower

All along the watchtower

Watchtower might be my favorite Bob Dylan Grateful Dead cover tune.  Just because the band gave it such life.  It always seemed unexpected.  I'd have to give this some serious thought.  Come think of it... It's All Over Now Baby Blue,  Knockin' on Heaven's Door, Queen Jane, She's Belongs To Me, Desolation Row, Tom Thumb's Blues... hmm, this one's tougher than I thought.
