Written by: Bob Dylan 1965
2
Farewell Angelina, the bells of the crown
3
Are being stolen by bandits, I must follow the sound
4
The triangle tingles, the music plays slow
5
But farewell Angelina, the night is on fire, and I must go
6
There is no use in talking and there's no need for blame
7
There is nothing to prove, everything still is the same
8
The table stands empty by the edge of the stream
9
But farewell Angelina, the sky's changing colors, and I must leave
10
The jacks and the queens they have forsake the courtyard
11
Fifty-two gypsies now file past the guard
12
In the space where the deuce and the ace once ran wild
13
Farewell Angelina, the sky is folding, I'll see you after a while
14
See the cross-eyed pirate sit perched in the sun
15
Shooting tin cans with a sawed-off shotgun
16
And the corporals and the neighbors clap and cheer with each blast
17
But farewell Angelina, the sky is trembling, and I must leave fast
18
King Kong little elves in the rooftops they dance
19
Valentino-type tangos while the hero's clean hands
20
Shut the eyes of the dead not to embarrass anyone
21
Farewell Angelina, the sky is flooding over, and I must be gone
22
The camouflaged parrot, he flutters from fear
23
When something he doesn't know about suddenly appears
24
What can not be imitated perfect must die
25
Farewell Angelina, the sky's flooding over, and I must go where it is dry
26
Machine guns are roaring, puppets heave rocks
27
At misunderstood visions and at the faces of clocks
28
Call me any name you like, I will never deny it
29
But farewell Angelina, the sky is erupting, and I must go where it's quiet
