It's lonely at the bottom Just ask those that are there Sad soldiers selling doomsday If only someone cared There wasn't enough comfortable failure To incense the revolution The churches all are closing They've been cut down to size Replaced by miles of graveyards For the suicides The poets back when could see it coming They broke off the revolution

I'm sorry Jeff Tweedy Though this isn't 49 My ham radio is busted Hell, it's barely keeping time It oughta be a crime Things got bad and things got worse Worse than we had feared Then I started growing Jimmy Akin's beard All those number stations They're barely coming in I'll tell you the secret At least where to begin You'll have to find the end Things got bad and things got worse Worse than we had feared Then I started growing Jimmy Akin's beard My heroes at the square dance Hear him on the call He's fighting off the martians He can take them all And send them to St. Paul Things got bad and things got worse Worse than we had feared Then I started growing Jimmy Akin's beard Paging Vince Lombardi He had what it takes I'm looking for a winner Considering the stakes The broken lucky breaks Things got bad and things got worse Worse than we had feared Then I started growing Jimmy Akin's beard I'm feeling the magic Just like kids again A thousand years of heartache Living in this skin In the bargain bin Things got bad and things got worse Worse than we had feared Then I started growing Jimmy Akin's beard I'm joining the protest The ratings are absurd The golden age has decayed Take me at my word I'm free as a bird Things got bad and things got worse Worse than we had feared Then I started growing Jimmy Akin's beard

A vagrant named Jimmy put his book away The Last Days of Socrates set softly in his bag He started asking questions and he never stopped Until he reached an empty parking lot It was there that Jimmy started talking to God He asked him questions but never got a response Still it was better than the market place He could see his back but God wouldn't show his face He went out begging by the subway trains An old pagan king showed him a home on the range Their minimalist dancing sure brought in a crowd But it was just a little more than the law would allow Soon they found Jesus in broadsides But he said "The soup can is the way" So they burned their Picasso and all their furs They broke into heaven in boots and silver spurs Lou Reed met them at the pearly gate He said, "This is heaven, but with this man you will wait" When they got bored they took a train down to hell Other than the warm beer it actually turned out pretty well Lucifer said, "boy you're sure sinnin' 'Cuz all this bullshit was already done By Dylan"
