[00:16.20]"There must be some way out of here,"
[00:19.46]said the joker to the thief,
[00:23.27]"There's too much confusion,
[00:25.58]
[00:26.89]I can't get no relief.
[00:29.32]
[00:30.64]Businessmen, they drink my wine,
[00:34.38]plowmen dig my earth,
[00:37.45]
[00:38.14]None of them along the line
[00:41.70]know what any of it is worth."
[00:45.08]
[01:00.33]"No reason to get excited,"
[01:03.95]the thief, he kindly spoke,
[01:07.70]"There are many here among us
[01:11.32]who feel that life is but a joke.
[01:15.08]But you and I, we've been through that
[01:18.83]and this is not our fate,
[01:22.51]So let us not talk falsely now,
[01:26.27]the hour is getting late."
[01:30.45]
[01:44.70]All along the watchtower,
[01:48.32]princes kept the view
[01:52.14]While all the women came and went,
[01:54.71]barefoot servants, too.
[01:59.26]Outside in the distance
[02:02.76]a wildcat did growl,
[02:06.14]
[02:06.82]Two riders were approaching,
[02:09.95]the wind began to howl.
