“2. i got 14 fevers/ i got 5 believers...dressed up like men
tell your mama not to worry/

2. (a) tell your mama & your pappa i'm trying to keep from dying too

3. tell your mamma & your pappa that there's nothing wrong with my jugular vein
tell your mama i love her & tell your sister Alice the same

4. when you sleep on windows & you stay up all night swallowing rocks

5. i should've sent her to Hong Kong instead of leaving”
― Bob Dylan, The Lyrics, 1961-2012
