Bob Dylan ~ Talkin' John Birch Paranoid Blues


Well, i was feelin' sad and feelin' blue, I didn't know what in the world i was gonna do, Them communists they wus comin' around, They wus in the air, They wus on the ground. They wouldn't gimme no peace. . . So i run down most hurriedly And joined up with the john birch society, I got me a secret membership card And started off a-walkin' down the road. Yee-hoo, i'm a real john bircher now! Look out you commies! Now we all agree with hitlers' views, Although he killed six million jews. It don't matter too much that he was a fascist, At least you can't say he was a communist! That's to say like if you got a cold you take a shot of malaria. Well, i wus lookin' everywhere for them gol-darned reds. I got up in the mornin' 'n' looked under my bed, Looked in the sink, behind the door, Looked in the glove compartment of my car. Couldn't find 'em . . . I wus lookin' high an' low for them reds everywhere, I wus lookin' in the sink an' underneath the chair. I looked way up my chimney hole, I even looked deep inside my toilet bowl. They got away . . . Well, i wus sittin' home alone an' started to sweat, Figured they wus in my t.v. set. Peeked behind the picture frame, Got a shock from my feet, hittin' right up in the brain. Them reds caused it! I know they did . . . them hard-core ones. Well, i quit my job so i could work alone, Then i changed my name to sherlock holmes. Followed some clues from my detective bag And discovered they wus red stripes on the american flag! That ol' betty ross . . . Well, i investigated all the books in the library, Ninety percent of 'em gotta be burned away. I investigated all the people that i knowed, Ninety-eight percent of them gotta go. The other two percent are fellow birchers . . . just like me. Now eisenhower, he's a russian spy, Lincoln, jefferson and that roosevelt guy. To my knowledge there's just one man That's really a true american: george lincoln rockwell. I know for a fact he hates commies cus he picketed the movie exodus. Well, i fin'ly started thinkin' straight When i run outa things to investigate. Couldn't imagine doin' anything else, So now i'm sittin' home investigatin' myself! Hope i don't find out anything . . . hmm, great god! more free lyrics

Well, i was feelin' sad and feelin' blue,
I didn't know what in the world i was gonna do,
Them communists they wus comin' around,
They wus in the air,
They wus on the ground.
They wouldn't gimme no peace. . .

So i run down most hurriedly
And joined up with the john birch society,
I got me a secret membership card
And started off a-walkin' down the road.
Yee-hoo, i'm a real john bircher now!
Look out you commies!

Now we all agree with hitlers' views,
Although he killed six million jews.
It don't matter too much that he was a fascist,
At least you can't say he was a communist!
That's to say like if you got a cold you take a shot of malaria.

Well, i wus lookin' everywhere for them gol-darned reds.
I got up in the mornin' 'n' looked under my bed,
Looked in the sink, behind the door,
Looked in the glove compartment of my car.
Couldn't find 'em . . .

I wus lookin' high an' low for them reds everywhere,
I wus lookin' in the sink an' underneath the chair.
I looked way up my chimney hole,
I even looked deep inside my toilet bowl.
They got away . . .

Well, i wus sittin' home alone an' started to sweat,
Figured they wus in my t.v. set.
Peeked behind the picture frame,
Got a shock from my feet, hittin' right up in the brain.
Them reds caused it!
I know they did . . . them hard-core ones.

Well, i quit my job so i could work alone,
Then i changed my name to sherlock holmes.
Followed some clues from my detective bag
And discovered they wus red stripes on the american flag!
That ol' betty ross . . .

Well, i investigated all the books in the library,
Ninety percent of 'em gotta be burned away.
I investigated all the people that i knowed,
Ninety-eight percent of them gotta go.
The other two percent are fellow birchers . . . just like me.

Now eisenhower, he's a russian spy,
Lincoln, jefferson and that roosevelt guy.
To my knowledge there's just one man
That's really a true american: george lincoln rockwell.
I know for a fact he hates commies cus he picketed the movie exodus.

Well, i fin'ly started thinkin' straight
When i run outa things to investigate.
Couldn't imagine doin' anything else,
So now i'm sittin' home investigatin' myself!
Hope i don't find out anything . . . hmm, great god!

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
