Bob Dylan, Prognosticator

the next day, everybody got up
seein' if the clothes were dry
the dogs were barking, a neighbor passed
mama, of course, she said, "hi!"
"have you heard the news?" he said, with a grin
"the vice-president's gone mad!"
"where?"
"downtown."
"when?"
"last night."
"oh, hey, that's too bad"

--Clothes Line Saga, 1967
