[00:00.00]Desolation Row (Live at TCN 9 TV, Sydney, Australia - April 1966) - Bob Dylan
[00:05.05]Lyrics by:Bob Dylan
[00:10.11]Composed by:Bob Dylan
[00:15.17]They're selling postcards of the hanging
[00:19.63]They're painting the passports brown
[00:23.85]The beauty parlor is filled with sailors the circus is in town
[00:32.09]Here comes the blind commissioner they've got him in a trance
[00:39.30]One hand is tied to the tight-rope
[00:41.51]Walker the other is in his pants
[00:47.37]And the riot squad they're restless
[00:51.59]They need somewhere to go
[00:55.49]As Lady and I look out tonight from Desolation Row
[01:09.48]Cinderella she seems so easy
[01:14.02]It takes one to know one she smiles
[01:18.08]And puts her hands into her back
[01:19.83]Pockets Bette Davis style
[01:26.08]And in comes Romeo he's moaning
[01:29.61]You Belong to Me I Believe
[01:34.12]And someone turns in the face TV here
[01:37.28]My friend you'd better leave
[01:41.54]And the only sound that's left after the ambulances go
[01:49.82]Is Cinderella sweeping up on Desolation Row
[02:00.48]Now the moon is almost hidden the stars
[02:05.24]They are just pretending to hide
[02:08.94]The fortune telling lady has even taken all her things inside
[02:16.45]All except for Cain and Abel and the hunchback of Notre Dame
[02:25.07]Everyone is he the making love or else expecting rain
[02:32.36]And the Good Samaritan he's dressing
[02:36.55]He's getting ready for the show
[02:40.82]He's going to the carnival tonight on Desolation Row
[02:51.22]Ophelia she's 'neath the window for her I feel so afraid
[02:59.13]On her twenty-second birthday she already is an old maid
[03:06.56]Not to her death is quite romantic
[03:11.35]She wears an iron vest
[03:14.99]Her profession's her religion
[03:18.94]Her sin is her lifelessness
[03:22.84]And though her eyes are fixed upon Noah's great rainbow
[03:30.91]She spends her time peeking into Desolation Row
[03:43.36]Einstein disguised as Robin Hood
[03:47.99]With his memories in a trunk
[03:52.51]Passed this way an hour ago with
[03:55.77]His friend a jealous monk
[03:59.81]Now he looked so immaculately frightful
[04:03.77]As he bummed a cigarette
[04:07.80]And he when off sniffing drainpipes
[04:11.65]And reciting the alphabet
[04:15.49]You would not think to look at
[04:19.05]Him but he was famous long ago
[04:24.04]For playing the electric violin on Desolation Row
[04:35.96]Dr Filth he keeps his world
[04:40.55]Locked inside of a leather cup
[04:44.56]But all his sexless patients they're trying to blow it up
[04:52.03]Now his nurse some local loser she's
[04:56.23]In charge of the cyanide hole
[05:00.34]And she also keeps the cards
[05:03.13]That read Have Mercy on His Soul
[05:08.49]They all play on the penny whistles you can hear them blow
[05:15.91]If you lean your head out far enough from Desolation Row
[05:27.13]Across the street they've nailed the curtains
[05:31.14]They're getting ready for the feast
[05:35.72]The Phantom of the Opera in a perfect image of a priest
[05:42.82]They are spoon feeding Casanova to
[05:47.03]Get him to feel more assured
[05:50.97]Then they'll kill him with self-confidence
[05:54.76]After poisoning him with words
[05:58.68]And the Phantom's shouts to skinny girls
[06:03.20]Get outta here if you don't know
[06:06.71]Casanova he is just being punished
[06:10.26]For going to Desolation Row
[06:19.05]At midnight all the agents and the superhuman crew
[06:27.49]Come out and round up everyone
[06:30.71]That knows more than they do
[06:34.56]Then they bring them to the factory
[06:38.85]Where the heart-attack machine
[06:43.10]Is strapped across their shoulders and then the kerosene
[06:50.77]Is brought down from the castles by insurance men who go
[06:58.55]Check to see that noone is escaping to Desolation Row
[07:09.64]Praise be to Nero's Neptune the Titanic sails at dawn
[07:18.37]Everybody's shouting Which side are you on
[07:25.52]And Ezra Pound and TS Eliot
[07:30.42]Fighting in the captain's tower
[07:33.79]While calypso singers laugh at
[07:36.99]Them and fishermen hold flowers
[07:41.68]Between the windows of the sea
[07:45.78]Where lovely mermaids flow
[07:49.88]And nobody has to think too
[07:53.18]Much about Desolation Row
[08:48.35]Yes I received your letter yesterday
[08:54.39]About the time the doorknob broke
[08:58.42]When you asked me how I was doing
[09:02.26]Was that some kind of joke
[09:05.83]All these people that you mention
[09:10.02]Yes I know them they're quite lame
[09:14.02]I had to rearrange their faces
[09:17.69]And give them all another name
[09:21.65]Right now I can't read too good
[09:25.41]Don't send me no more letters no
[09:30.30]Not unless you mail them from Desolation Row
