Momus Who Is Mr Jones
Bob Dylan at the height of his fame
Got asked the same question again and again
In a forest of microphones
'Tell us, Bob, who really, who really is Mr Jones?'
Dylan replied: 'He's a pinboy, he also wears suspenders
It's not so hard to picture him
In a room with three walls and a midget, a naked man and
a geek
And I am the voice in his dream, speaking in his sleep'
Bob Dylan at the height of his fame
Got asked the same question again and again
In a forest of microphones
'Tell us, Bob, who really, who really is Mr Jones?'
Dylan, probably bored to death
Is also reported to have said:
'I saw him come into the room one night
He looked just like a camel
And proceeded to put his eyes into his pocket'
He's a real person, you know him
You don't have to be so imaginative
The answer is blindingly obvious:
Mr Jones is a man who doesn't know who Mr Jones is
Mr Jones is a man who doesn't know who Mr Jones is
Mr Jones is a man who doesn't know who Mr Jones is
Mr Jones is a man who doesn't know who Mr Jones is
