12. yeah, SHB's the original rap song, inspired by the Beats
title in part taken from kerouac's THE SUBTERRANEANS..

and here's one of my favorite dylan verses, and although it's addressing a female attending the "old folks home in the college," it's really applicable to most humans prone to amassing irrelevant trivia designed to impress and intrigue, especially in the accident occident:

from TOMBSTONE BLUES

Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain
That could hold you dear lady from going insane
That could ease you and cool you and cease the pain
Of your useless and pointless knowledge!
