Lyrics for Lenny Bruce by Bob Dylan:
| | | Artist: | Bob Dylan |
| | Album: | Shot of Love | | Track: | Lenny Bruce | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 230 | | | | Lyrics: | by Bob Dylan
Lenny Bruce is dead but his ghost lives on and on
Never did get any
Golden Globe award, never made it to Synanon.
He was an outlaw, that's for sure,
More of
an outlaw than you ever were.
Lenny Bruce is gone but his spirit's livin' on and
on.
Maybe he had some problems, maybe some things that he couldn't work out
But he
sure was funny and he sure told the truth and he knew what he was talkin'
about. Never robbed
any churches nor cut off any babies' heads,
He just took the folks in high places and he shined
a light in their beds.
He's on some other shore, he didn't wanna live anymore.
Lenny
Bruce is dead but he didn't commit any crime
He just had the insight to rip off the lid before
its time.
I rode with him in a taxi once, only for a mile and a half,
Seemed like it took
a couple of months.
Lenny Bruce moved on and like the ones that killed him,
gone.
They said that he was sick 'cause he didn't play by the rules
He just showed
the wise men of his day to be nothing more than fools.
They stamped him and they labeled him
like they do with pants and shirts,
He fought a war on a battlefield where every victory
hurts.
Lenny Bruce was bad, he was the brother that you never had | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
