[00:06.46]Written by：Bob Dylan [00:12.92]Darkness at the break of noon [00:14.90]Shadows even the silver spoon [00:16.19] [00:17.05]The handmade blade the child's balloon [00:19.10] [00:19.61]Eclipses both the sun and moon [00:21.45]To understand you know too soon [00:22.81] [00:23.32]There is no sense in trying [00:24.80] [00:34.10]Pointed threats they bluff with scorn [00:36.19]Suicide remarks are torn [00:37.23] [00:38.09]From the fool's gold mouthpiece the hollow horn [00:40.59]Plays wasted words proves to warn [00:42.24] [00:43.20]That he not busy being born is busy dying [00:46.01] [00:56.19]Temptation's page flies out the door [00:57.92] [00:58.50]You follow find yourself at war [00:59.88] [01:00.53]Watch waterfalls of pity roar [01:01.79] [01:02.35]You feel to moan but unlike before [01:04.97]You discover [01:05.33]That you'd just be one more [01:06.96]Person crying [01:07.42] [01:15.18]So don't fear if you hear [01:17.71] [01:19.31]A foreign sound to [01:20.61] [01:21.78]Your ear [01:22.43] [01:24.27]It's alright Ma I'm only sighing [01:28.24] [01:44.99]As some warn victory some downfall [01:47.19]Private reasons great or small [01:49.49]Can be seen [01:50.59]In the eyes of those that call [01:52.23]To make all [01:52.79]That should be killed to crawl [01:53.83]While others say don't [01:55.30]Hate nothing at all [01:56.11]Except hatred [01:56.71] [02:05.43]Disillusioned words like bullets bark [02:06.81] [02:07.62]As human gods aim for their mark [02:09.36] [02:09.92]Make everything [02:10.32]From toy guns that spark [02:11.72] [02:12.36]To flesh-colored Christs [02:13.48]That glow in the dark [02:14.67]It's easy to see [02:15.73]Without looking too far [02:16.59]That not much is really sacred [02:18.15] [02:27.87]While preachers preach of evil fates [02:29.20] [02:30.00]Teachers teach that knowledge waits [02:31.11]Can lead to hundred-dollar plates [02:33.26] [02:34.13]Goodness hides behind its gates [02:35.58] [02:36.34]But even the president [02:37.16]Of the United States [02:38.72]Sometimes must have to stand naked [02:40.03] [02:49.07]An' though the rules of the road [02:50.73] [02:51.28]Have been lodged [02:52.11] [02:53.37]It's only people's games [02:55.25] [02:56.04]That you got to dodge [02:57.03] [02:58.79]And it's alright Ma [03:00.25] [03:02.04]I can make it [03:02.87] [03:12.03]Advertising signs they con [03:13.31] [03:14.27]You into thinking you're the one [03:16.25]That can do what's never been done [03:18.37]That can win what's never been won [03:20.43]Meantime life outside goes on [03:21.79] [03:22.30]All around you [03:23.16] [03:31.49]You lose yourself you reappear [03:32.84] [03:33.44]You suddenly find you got nothing to fear [03:35.16] [03:35.91]Alone you stand with nobody near [03:37.28] [03:37.95]When a trembling distant voice unclear [03:39.36] [03:40.25]Startles your sleeping ears to hear [03:41.54] [03:42.08]That somebody thinks they really found you [03:43.63] [03:53.97]A question in your nerves is lit [03:56.09]Yet you know there is no answer fit [03:57.59] [03:58.10]To satisfy insure you not to quit [03:59.56] [04:00.17]To keep it in your mind and not forget [04:02.21]That it is not he or she or them or it [04:04.50]That you belong to [04:05.31] [04:13.00]Although the masters make the rules [04:15.77] [04:17.21]For the wise men and the fools [04:20.22] [04:22.13]I got nothing Ma to live up to [04:26.26] [04:40.82]For them that must obey authority [04:41.90] [04:43.11]That they do not respect in any degree [04:44.86] [04:45.65]Who despise their jobs their destinies [04:47.22] [04:47.96]Speak jealously of them that are free [04:49.64] [04:50.50]Cultivate their flowers to be [04:52.36]Nothing more than something they invest in [04:53.73] [05:00.34]While some on principles baptized [05:01.48] [05:02.37]To strict party platform ties [05:03.76] [05:04.70]Social clubs in drag disguise [05:05.94] [05:06.78]Outsiders they can freely criticize [05:08.13] [05:09.23]Tell nothing except who to idolize [05:11.12]And then say God bless him [05:12.29] [05:20.70]While one who sings [05:21.46]With his tongue on fire [05:22.50]Gargles in the rat race choir [05:24.20]Bent out of shape [05:25.69]From society's pliers [05:26.89]Cares not to come up any higher [05:28.31]But rather get you down in the hole [05:30.58]That he's in [05:31.94] [05:39.40]But I mean no harm nor put fault [05:41.85] [05:43.50]On anyone that lives in a vault [05:45.99] [05:47.09]But it's alright Ma [05:49.08] [05:51.30]If I can't please him [05:52.63] [06:06.41]Old lady judges watch people in pairs [06:07.94] [06:08.90]Limited in sex they dare [06:10.23] [06:10.75]To push fake morals insult and stare [06:12.18]While money doesn't talk it swears [06:14.50] [06:15.26]Obscenity who really cares [06:16.43] [06:17.13]Propaganda all is phony [06:18.22] [06:28.53]While them that defend [06:29.80]What they cannot see [06:30.79]With a killer's pride security [06:32.57] [06:33.09]It blows the minds most bitterly [06:35.20]For them that think death's honesty [06:37.35]Won't fall upon them naturally [06:39.46]Life sometimes must get lonely [06:40.41] [06:49.34]My eyes collide head-on with stuffed [06:51.19] [06:51.96]Graveyards false gods I scuff [06:53.97] [06:54.48]At pettiness [06:54.96]Which plays so rough [06:56.07]Walk upside-down inside handcuffs [06:57.64] [06:58.16]Kick my legs to crash it off [07:00.54]Say okay I have had enough [07:02.33]What else can you show me [07:03.55] [07:09.16]And if my thought-dreams could be seen [07:11.73] [07:13.32]They'd probably put my head [07:14.75]In a guillotine [07:16.26] [07:18.25]But it's alright Ma it's life [07:22.39]And life only
