THOUGHT TWICE, STILL AIN'T RIGHT
Bob Dylan's Song: "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right"
Suze's Response: "Thought Twice, You Still Ain't Right"
Verse 1
You stitched up your pride in a travelin’ song
Said the road don’t lie, so you moved along
But the truth don’t rhyme when the reason’s wrong
And a record deal don’t keep you warm
Verse 2
You made me a mom, but would't take my soul
Sent me to Italy, then called distance a toll
Guess only a free bird could sing that well
Got a heart full of songs, and no love to tell
Chorus
You said “don’t think twice,” like that made it right
Like leavin' slow don’t count as flight
But I thought it through on a sleepless night
And no, you still ain’t right
Bob, you still ain’t right
Verse 3
You loved your voice in that rusted tone
More than my arms that felt like home
Chased applause, left my love alone
Then you called it truth in a microphone (sigh)
Bridge
You packed your guilt in a sweet melody
Said your goodbyes like it set you free
But who writes five verses just to flee?
Sounds like a man who's still missing me
Final Chorus
So sing your hurt on another stage
Wear heartbreak like a noble cage
But I’ve read past your black-and-white—
I thought it through, and you still ain’t right
I thought it through, Bob... you still ain’t right!
