We’re older now than we’ve ever been,
But we’re younger now than we’ll ever be again.

I woke up this morning with the sundown shining in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag within
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
RIP Kenny

I have had the last line of that song stuck in my mind all morning but couldn’t place it. When I saw the RIP it all clicked, since I had read of Rogers death this morning. Clearly my subconscious has a better memory than I do.

When I read about his passing, that song was the first thing that came to mind. I was 14 when I first heard it on the radio.

Heartless powers try to tell us what to think
If the spirit’s sleeping then the flesh is ink
History’s page will be neatly carved in stone
The future’s here, we are it, we are on our own
On our own, on our own, we are on our own
- Weir/Barlow - thought it was fitting for our sad situation today

Streets are almost empty, shops are closed down
There’s not a soul left in the bar to tell my troubles to
Think I’ll walk down to the river that runs just south of town
I hate like hell when there ain’t nothin? left to do

OOOh, she’s looking like a model on a cover of a magazine
Why she’s too cute to be a minute over seventeen.

Chas, it’s raucous Stones evening
Paranoia is running so high that my laptop began to run its antivirus program immediately after I sneezed in front of the screen.

Same thing… only different
It’s a viscous circle

particular about the point it made.

Bob Dylan about populists:
„fools rush in where angels fear to tread"
„Manipulator of crowds, you’re a dream twister
You’re going to Sodom and Gomorrah
But what do you care?“
The song Jokerman out of the album Infidels.
“For fools rush in where angels fear to tread”
-Alexander Pope
Oh, then Dylan copied it 
Well researched!
It is a popular quotation by one of the greatest English poets.
He also wrote “To err is human; to forgive, divine.” and many other quotable phrases.
