Bob Dylan - Enemy Of The State

At a high school talent show in Colorado, some students sang a Dylan song. Unfortunately for them, the song contained these lyrics:

How much do I know to talk out of turn?
You might say that I'm young, you might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know, though I'm younger than you
Even Jesus would never forgive what you do.

Let me ask you one question: is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness? Do you think that it could?
I think you will find when your death takes its toll
All the money you made won't ever buy back your soul.

And I hope that you die and your death will come soon.
I'll follow your casket through the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered into your death bed
Then I'll stand over your grave till I'm sure that you're dead.

Of course, the Secret Service had to be called in.

There's something to be said about Dylan, still rabblerousing forty odd years later. Not a bad record, if you consider it. ;)

The best part is the band's name -- 'The Coalition of the Willing'.
