※ 引述《NEWO (Into the face)》之銘言：
: Desolation Row
: Bob Dylan
: They're selling postcards of the hanging
: They're painting the passports brown
: The beauty parlor is filled with sailors
: The circus is in town
: Here comes the blind commissioner
: They've got him in a trance
: One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker
: The other is in his pants
: And the riot squad they're restless
: They need somewhere to go
: As Lady and I look out tonight
: From Desolation Row
: Cinderella, she seems so easy
: "It takes one to know one," she smiles
: And puts her hands in her back pockets
: Bette Davis style
: And in comes Romeo, he's moaning
: "You Belong to Me I Believe"
: And someone says," You're in the wrong place, my friend
: You better leave"
: And the only sound that's left
: After the ambulances go
: Is Cinderella sweeping up
: On Desolation Row
: Now the moon is almost hidden
: The stars are beginning to hide
: The fortunetelling lady
: Has even taken all her things inside
: All except for Cain and Abel
: And the hunchback of Notre Dame
: Everybody is making love
: Or else expecting rain
: And the Good Samaritan, he's dressing
: He's getting ready for the show
: He's going to the carnival tonight
: On Desolation Row
: Now Ophelia, she's 'neath the window
: For her I feel so afraid
: On her twenty-second birthday
: She already is an old maid
: To her, death is quite romantic
: She wears an iron vest
: Her profession's her religion
: Her sin is her lifelessness
: And though her eyes are fixed upon
: Noah's great rainbow
: She spends her time peeking
: Into Desolation Row
: Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood
: With his memories in a trunk
: Passed this way an hour ago
: With his friend, a jealous monk
: He looked so immaculately frightful
: As he bummed a cigarette
: Then he went off sniffing drainpipes
: And reciting the alphabet
: Now you would not think to look at him
: But he was famous long ago
: For playing the electric violin
: On Desolation Row
: Dr. Filth, he keeps his world
: Inside of a leather cup
: But all his sexless patients
: They're trying to blow it up
: Now his nurse, some local loser
: She's in charge of the cyanide hole
: And she also keeps the cards that read
: "Have Mercy on His Soul"
: They all play on penny whistles
: You can hear them blow
: If you lean your head out far enough
: From Desolation Row
: Across the street they've nailed the curtains
: They're getting ready for the feast
: The Phantom of the Opera
: A perfect image of a priest
: They're spoonfeeding Casanova
: To get him to feel more assured
: Then they'll kill him with self-confidence
: After poisoning him with words
: And the Phantom's shouting to skinny girls
: "Get Outa Here If You Don't Know
: Casanova is just being punished for going
: To Desolation Row"
: Now at midnight all the agents
: And the superhuman crew
: Come out and round up everyone
: That knows more than they do
: Then they bring them to the factory
: Where the heart-attack machine
: Is strapped across their shoulders
: And then the kerosene
: Is brought down from the castles
: By insurance men who go
: Check to see that nobody is escaping
: To Desolation Row
: Praise be to Nero's Neptune
: The Titanic sails at dawn
: And everybody's shouting
: "Which Side Are You On?"
: And Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot
: Fighting in the captain's tower
: While calypso singers laugh at them
: And fishermen hold flowers
: Between the windows of the sea
: Where lovely mermaids flow
: And nobody has to think too much
: About Desolation Row
: Yes, I received your letter yesterday
: (About the time the door knob broke)
: When you asked how I was doing
: Was that some kind of joke?
: All these people that you mention
: Yes, I know them, they're quite lame
: I had to rearrange their faces
: And give them all another name
: Right now I can't read too good
: Don't send me no more letters no
: Not unless you mail them
: From Desolation Row
