I'd just finished reading RobertS' Greencrow post, not long after listening to/posting Amazing Polly's latest, and this song came into my mind ... it doesn't usually, or even rarely, but here is a link to a youtube audio:
"There must be some kind of 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's getting late."
All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants too
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl
Thank you RobertS and Greencrow for sharing your knowledge, findings, and thoughts.
