Song For Bob Dylan

David Bowie

Transposer:

Intro: Ah hear this Robert Zimmerman I wrote a song for you About a strange young man called Dylan With a voice like sand and glue Some words had truthful vengeance That could pin us to the floor Brought a few more people on And put the fear in a whole lot more Ah here she comes here she comes here she comes again That same old painted lady From the brow of the superbrain She’ll scratch this world to pieces As she comes on like a friend But a couple of songs from your old scrap book Could send her home again You gave your heart to every bedsit room At least a picture on the wall And you sat behind a million pair of eyes And told them how they saw Then we lost your train of thought Your paintings are all your own While troubles are rising We’d rather be scared together than alone Refrão: Solo: Now hear this Robert Zimmerman Though I don’t suppose we’ll meet Ask your good friend Dylan If he’d gaze a while down the old street Tell him we’ve lost his poems So we’re writing on the walls Give us back our unity Give us back our family You’re every nations refugee Don’t leave us with our sanity Ah here she comes here she comes here she comes again That same old painted lady From the brow of the superbrain She’ll scratch this world to pieces As she comes on like a friend But a couple of songs from your old scrap book Could send her home again Oh a couple of songs from your old scrap book Could send her home again Oh here she comes Ooh here she comes And here she comes OUTRO Solo:

La chanson évoque une figure emblématique, Robert Zimmerman, en lui rendant hommage à travers l'image d'un jeune homme mystérieux, Dylan, dont la voix est décrite de manière singulière. Elle souligne la puissance des mots, qui peuvent à la fois rassembler et effrayer, et évoque la façon dont la musique a touché des générations entières, créant un lien avec ceux qui l'écoutent. On ressent aussi une nostalgie face à la perte de la poésie et de l'unité familiale, tout en exprimant un désir de retrouver ces connexions humaines et cette créativité. Dans le contexte des années 70, cette chanson fait référence à une période de bouleversements culturels et sociaux, où la musique et la poésie étaient des moyens d'expression puissants. Elle nous rappelle que, malgré les défis, la musique a toujours le potentiel de rassembler les gens et de réconforter les cœurs.
