Ballad Of A Thin Man by Bob Dylan And The Band


You walk into the room

With your pencil in your hand

See somebody naked

You say "Who is that man?"

 

You try so hard

But you don't understand

What you gonna say

When you get home?

 

'Cause something is happening

And you don't know what it is

Do you Mister Jones?

 

You raise up your head

Say "Is this where it is?"

Somebody points to you

And says "It's his"

 

You say "What's mine?"

Someone else says "Where what is?"

You say "Oh my God

Am I here all alone?"

 

But something is happening

And you don't know what it is

Do you Mister Jones?

You hand in your ticket

To go see the geek

Who walks up to you

When he hears you speak

 

Says "How does it feel

To be such a freak?"

You say "Impossible"

As he hands you the bone

 

And something is happening

But you don't know what it is

Do you Mister Jones?

 

You have many contacts

Out among the lumberjacks

To get your facts

When someone attacks your imagination

 

No one has any respect

Anyway they expect

You to give your check

To tax-deductible charity organizations

 

You've been with professors

They've all liked your looks

With great lawyers

You discussed lepers and crooks

 

You've been through all of

F. Scott Fitzgerald's books

You're very well read

It's well known

 

But still something's happening

And you don't know what it is

Do you Mister Jones?

 

You crawl into the room

Like a camel and you frown

Put your eyes in your pocket

And your nose on the ground

 

There ought to be a law

Against ya' comin' around

You should be made

To be wearing ear telephones

 

Oh something is happening

But you don't know what it is

Do you Mister Jones?
