Ballad Of A Thin Man (Live in New Jersey April 1 1988) - Grateful Dead[00:00:01]
You walk into the room[00:00:23]
With your pencil in your hand[00:00:25]
You see somebody naked[00:00:29]
And you say who is that man[00:00:30]
You try so very hard[00:00:35]
But you don't understand[00:00:37]
Just what you'll say[00:00:40]
When you get home[00:00:42]
And you know something is happening here[00:00:46]
Don't know what it is[00:00:49]
Do you[00:00:52]
Mister Jones[00:00:55]
You raise up your head[00:01:02]
And you ask is this where it is[00:01:04]
And somebody points to you and says[00:01:08]
It's his[00:01:11]
And you say what's mine[00:01:14]
And somebody else says Where what is[00:01:15]
And you say oh my God[00:01:18]
Am I here all alone[00:01:21]
Because something is happening[00:01:26]
You don't know what it is[00:01:28]
Do you[00:01:32]
Mister Jones[00:01:35]
You pay for your ticket[00:01:42]
And you go watch the geek[00:01:45]
Who immediately walks up to you[00:01:48]
When he hears you speak[00:01:51]
And says How does it feel[00:01:54]
To be such a freak[00:01:56]
And you say Impossible[00:01:58]
As he hands you a bone[00:02:01]
Because something is happening[00:02:05]
But you don't know what it is[00:02:09]
Do you[00:02:12]
Mister Jones[00:02:14]
You have many contacts[00:02:22]
Among the lumberjacks[00:02:25]
To get you facts[00:02:26]
When someone attacks your imagination[00:02:28]
But there are really inrespect[00:02:34]
To just give a check[00:02:38]
To tax-deductible charity organizations[00:02:40]
You've been with the professors[00:03:30]
They've all liked your looks[00:03:32]
With great lawyers you have[00:03:36]
Discussed lepers and crooks[00:03:37]
You've been through all of[00:03:42]
Scott Fitzgerald's books[00:03:43]
You're very well read[00:03:47]
It's well known[00:03:49]
You know something is happening here[00:03:53]
But you don't know what it is[00:03:56]
Do you[00:04:00]
Mister Jones[00:04:03]
The sword swallower he comes up to you[00:04:10]
And then he kneels[00:04:13]
He crosses himself[00:04:17]
And then he clicks his high heels[00:04:18]
Without further notice[00:04:22]
He asks you how it feels[00:04:24]
And he says here is your throat back[00:04:27]
Thanks for the loan[00:04:30]
You know something is happening here[00:04:34]
But you don't know what it is[00:04:37]
Do you[00:04:40]
Mister Jones[00:04:43]
You see this one-eyed midget[00:04:50]
Shouting in the word now[00:04:53]
You say what's the matter[00:04:57]
And he says how[00:04:58]
And you say what does this mean[00:05:03]
And he screams back you're a cow[00:05:05]
Give me some milk[00:05:08]
Or else go home[00:05:10]
You know something is happening here[00:05:14]
But you don't know what it is[00:05:17]
Do you[00:05:21]
Mister Jones[00:05:23]
You walk into the room[00:05:31]
Like a camel and then you frown[00:05:33]
You put your eyes in your pocket[00:05:37]
Your nose on the ground[00:05:40]
There ought to be a law[00:05:43]
Against you comin' around[00:05:45]
You should be made[00:05:48]
To wear earphones[00:05:50]
Because something is happening here[00:05:55]
But you don't know what it is[00:05:58]
Do you[00:06:01]
Mister Jones[00:06:04]
