Desolation Row(Live at Royal Albert Hall, London, UK - May 26, 1966)

Desolation Row (Live from London 5/26/66) - Bob Dylan Desolation lan[00:00:00]

They're selling postcards of the hanging[00:00:33]

They're painting the passports brown[00:00:37]

The beauty parlor is filled with sailors[00:00:41]

The circus is in town[00:00:46]

Here comes the blind commissioner[00:00:50]

They've got him in a trance[00:00:53]

One hand is tied to the tight rope walker[00:00:57]

The other is in his pants[00:01:02]

And the riot squad they're restless[00:01:05]

They need somewhere to go[00:01:10]

As lady and I look out tonight[00:01:14]

From desolation row[00:01:18]

Cinderella she seems so easy[00:01:28]

It takes one to know one she smiles[00:01:32]

And puts her hands in her back pockets[00:01:36]

Bette davis style[00:01:41]

And in comes romeo he's moaning[00:01:44]

You belong to me I believe[00:01:48]

And someone says you're in the wrong place my friend[00:01:53]

You'd better leave[00:01:57]

And the only sound that's left[00:02:00]

After the ambulances go[00:02:05]

Is cinderella sweeping up[00:02:08]

On desolation row[00:02:12]

Now the moon is almost hidden[00:02:23]

The stars are beginning to hide[00:02:31]

The fortune telling lady[00:02:35]

Has even taken all her things inside[00:02:39]

All except for cain and abel[00:02:43]

And the hunchback of notre dame[00:02:47]

Everybody is making love[00:02:51]

Or else expecting rain[00:02:55]

And the good samaritan he's dressing[00:02:59]

He's getting ready for the show[00:03:03]

He's going to the carnival tonight[00:03:07]

On desolation row[00:03:11]

Ophelia she's 'neath the window[00:03:18]

For her I feel so afraid[00:03:22]

On her twenty second birthday[00:03:25]

She already is an old maid[00:03:29]

To her death is quite romantic[00:03:33]

She wears an iron vest[00:03:38]

Her profession's her religion[00:03:41]

Her sin is her lifelessness[00:03:45]

And though her eyes are fixed upon[00:03:50]

Noah's great rainbow[00:03:54]

She spends her time peeking[00:03:58]

Into desolation row[00:04:01]

Einstein disguised as robin hood[00:04:12]

With his memories in a trunk[00:04:16]

Passed this way an hour ago[00:04:21]

With his friend a jealous monk[00:04:24]

Now he looked so immaculately frightful[00:04:28]

As he bummed a cigarette[00:04:32]

Then he went off sniffing drainpipes[00:04:36]

And reciting the alphabet[00:04:40]

You would not think to look at him[00:04:44]

But he was famous long ago[00:04:48]

For playing the electric violin[00:04:52]

On desolation row[00:04:56]

Dr filth he keeps his world[00:05:06]

Inside of a leather cup[00:05:11]

But all his sexless patients[00:05:15]

They are trying to blow it up[00:05:18]

Now his nurse some local loser[00:05:22]

She's in charge of the cyanide hole[00:05:26]

And she also keeps the cards that read[00:05:30]

Have mercy on his soul[00:05:34]

They all play on the penny whistle[00:05:39]

You can hear them blow[00:05:42]

If you lean your head out far enough[00:05:46]

From desolation row[00:05:50]

Across the street they've nailed the curtains[00:06:01]

They're getting ready for the feast[00:06:04]

The phantom of the opera[00:06:08]

In a perfect image of a priest[00:06:12]

They are spoon feeding casanova[00:06:16]

To get him to feel more assured[00:06:20]

Then they'll kill him with self confidence[00:06:24]

After poisoning him with words[00:06:28]

And the phantom's shouting to skinny girls[00:06:32]

Get outta here if you don't know[00:06:36]

Casanova is just being punished for going[00:06:40]

To desolation row[00:06:44]

At midnight all the agents[00:06:54]

And the superhuman crew[00:06:58]

Come out and round up everyone[00:07:07]

That knows more than they do[00:07:10]

Then they bring them to the factory[00:07:15]

Where the heart attack machine[00:07:18]

Is strapped across their shoulders[00:07:23]

And then the kerosene[00:07:27]

Is brought down from the castles[00:07:31]

By insurance men who go[00:07:34]

Check to see that nobody is escaping[00:07:38]

To desolation row[00:07:42]

Praise be to nero's neptune[00:07:51]

The titanic sails at dawn[00:07:54]

Everybody's shouting[00:07:59]

Which side are you on[00:08:03]

And ezra pound and t s eliot[00:08:06]

Fighting in the captain's tower[00:08:11]

While calypso singers laugh at them[00:08:15]

And fishermen hold flowers[00:08:18]

Between the windows of the sea[00:08:23]

Where lovely mermaids flow[00:08:26]

And nobody has to think too much[00:08:31]

About desolation row[00:08:35]

Yes I received your letter yesterday[00:09:29]

About the time the door knob broke[00:09:38]

When you asked me how I was doing[00:09:41]

Or was that some kind of joke[00:09:45]

All these people that you mention[00:09:49]

Yes I know them they're quite lame[00:09:53]

I had to rearrange their faces[00:09:57]

And give them all another name[00:10:01]

Right now I can't read too good[00:10:05]

Don't send me no more letters no[00:10:09]

Not unless you mail them[00:10:13]

From desolation row[00:10:16]
