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, weve 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.
Often, our ignorance is not as great as our reluctance to act on what we know.

Great song. 
I like jimi's cover of it  and Dave mathews has a good live version.
Home is where you make it

I've listened to Jimi since the 7th grade (1999).  It was a long time before I realized that Bob Dylan wrote this song.
Individuality: You are all unique, just like everybody else.

Thought this was a thread about Jehovah's Witnesses.
just spent a few days building a website, and didn't know that it could be so physically taxing to sit and do nothing all day!
