I’m younger than that now A self-ordained professor’s tongue too serious to fool Spouted out that liberty is just equality in school “Equality, “ I spoke the word as if a wedding vow Ah, but I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now In a soldier’s stance, I aimed my hand at the mongrel dogs who teach Fearing not that I’d become my enemy in the instant that I preach My existence led by confusion boats, mutiny from stern to bow Ah, but I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats too noble to neglect Deceived me into thinking I had something to protect Good and bad, I define these terms quite clear, no doubt, somehow Ah, but I was so much older then I’m younger than that now #BobDylan #Folk #SingerSongwriter
