Jangling Man - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Breaking glass and burning buildings in the early greenhouse sun

The powers that will blame extremists and I may well be one

And all you kids in cardboard city, I hope you're having fun

And all you voters everywhere will remember what you've done

Remember what you've done

I am just a jangling man

Been in the cold too long all along

I lived with a raggedy Anne

We never had any money, is it really so wrong?

Velvet gloves, the iron rod, and the bridal for your tongue

The tanks which trundle through the square where the old have killed the young

The wind feels all the colder now that summer's on the run

The old man sees the wall come down and reaches for his gun

Reaches for his gun

I am just a jangling man

Been in the cold too long all along

I lived with a raggedy Anne

We never had any money, is it really so wrong?

When we dream

Dream of the feeling

To wait one day and find that you are gone

And we dance

Dance by your graveside

So glad, so glad, so glad that you are gone

Wander dimly through the past of the LA that you knew

These dispossessed and homeless children, they all belong to you

They all belong to you

I am just a jangling man

Been in the cold too long all along

I lived with a raggedy Anne

We never had any money, is it really so wrong?

When we dream

Dream of the feeling

To wait one day and find that you are gone

And we dance

Dance by your graveside

So glad, so glad, so glad that you are gone

So glad, so glad, so glad that you are gone
