[00:04.97]Political World
[00:08.70]Bob Dylan
[00:11.58]Oh Mercy
[00:12.13]
[00:25.14]We live in a political world,
[00:27.32]Love don't have any place.
[00:29.81]We're living in times where men commit crimes
[00:32.06]And crime don't have a face
[00:34.58]
[00:39.52]We live in a political world,
[00:41.80]Icicles hanging down,
[00:44.20]Wedding bells ring and angels sing,
[00:46.31]clouds cover up the ground.
[00:49.11]
[00:53.88]We live in a political world,
[00:56.32]Wisdom is thrown into jail,
[00:58.72]It rots in a cell, is misguided as hell
[01:00.89]Leaving no one to pick up a trail.
[01:03.56]
[01:08.29]We live in a political world
[01:10.65]Where mercy walks the plank,
[01:12.85]Life is in mirrors, death disappears
[01:15.18]Up the steps into the nearest bank.
[01:17.95]
[01:27.41]We live in a political world
[01:29.69]Where courage is a thing of the past
[01:32.16]Houses are haunted, children are unwanted
[01:34.47]The next day could be your last.
[01:36.28]
[01:37.07]We live in a political world.
[01:39.46]The one we can see and can feel
[01:41.68]But there's no one to check, it's all a stacked deck,
[01:44.03]We all know for sure that it's real.
[01:46.55]
[01:56.03]We live in a political world
[01:58.27]In the cities of lonesome fear,
[02:00.76]Little by little you turn in the middle
[02:03.11]But you're never why you're here.
[02:05.64]
[02:10.64]We live in a political world
[02:12.63]Under the microscope,
[02:15.14]You can travel anywhere and hang yourself there
[02:17.31]You always got more than enough rope.
[02:20.06]
[02:24.79]We live in a political world
[02:26.91]Turning and a'thrashing about,
[02:29.44]As soon as you're awake, you're trained to take
[02:31.79]What looks like the easy way out.
[02:34.25]
[02:43.75]We live in a political world
[02:46.16]Where peace is not welcome at all,
[02:48.43]It's turned away from the door to wander some more
[02:50.75]Or put up against the wall.
[02:54.58]
[03:03.00]We live in apolitical world
[03:05.23]Everything is hers or his,
[03:07.58]Climb into the frame and shout God's name
[03:09.82]But you're never sure what it is.
[03:14.73]
