Bob Dylan - Talking Bear Mountain Picnic Massacre Bl текст песни

Текст
I saw it advertised one day,

Bear mountain picnic was comin my way.

"come along n take a trip,

Well bring you up there on a ship.

Bring the wife and kids

Bring the whole family."

Yippee!

Well, I run right down n bought a ticket

To this bear mountain picnic.

But little did I realize

I was in for a picnic surprise.

Had nothin to do with mountains.

I didnt even come close to a bear.

Took the wife n kids down to the pier,

Six thousand people there,

Everybody had ticket for the trip.

"oh well." I said, "its a pretty big ship.

Besides, anyway, the more the merrier."

Well, we all got on n what dya think,

That big old boat started t sink

More people kept a-pilin on,

That old ship was a-slowly goin down.

Funny way t start a picnic.

Well, I soon lost track of m kids n wife,

So many people there I never saw in m life

That old ship sinkin down in the water,

Six thousand people tryin t kill each other,

Dogs a-barkin, cats a-meowin,

Women screamin, fists a-flyin, babies cryin,

Cops a-comin, me a-runnin.

Maybe we just better call off the picnic.

I got shoved down n pushed around,

All I could hear there was a screamin sound,

Dont remember one thing more,

Just remember walkin up on a little shore,

Head busted, stomach cracked,

Feet splintered, I was bald, naked. . .

Quite lucky to be alive though.

Feelin like I climbed outa m casket,

I grabbed back hold of m picnic basket.

Took the wife n kids n started home,

Wishin Id never got up that morn.

Now, I dont care just what you do,

If you wanta have a picnic, thats up t you.

But dont tell me about it, I dont wanta hear it,

cause, see, I just lost all m picnic spirit.

Stay in m kitchen, have m own picnic. . .

In the bathroom.

Now, it dont seem to me quite so funny

What some people are gonna do fr money.

Theres a bran new gimmick every day

Just t take somebodys money away.

I think we oughta take some o these people

And put em on a boat, send em up to bear mountain . . .

For a picnic.
