"There must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief, |
|
"There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief. |
|
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth, |
|
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth." |
|
"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 you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate, |
|
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late." |
|
All along the watchtower, princes kept the view |
|
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too. |
|
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl, |
|
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl. |
