Sold my mal today.
With all this talk about Dylan songs, this sentence reminded me of the Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young song "Almost Cut My Hair"
This one's for you Buddy:
1-2-3 .......
Almost I sold my mal
It happened just the other day
It's gettin' kinda long (board)
I coulda said it wasn't in my way
But I didn't and I wonder why
I feel like letting my freaking shortboard fly
Yes, I feel like I owe it to someone
Must be because I had a flu for Christmas
And I'm not feeling up to par
I don't even like golf anyway
It increases my paranoia
Like looking at my mirror and seeing … FUCKING Shearer!
But I'm not giving in an inch to fear
'Cause I promised myself this year
I feel like I owe it to someone
When I finally get myself together
Did I tell you we just had a baby
I'm going to get down in that sunny southern weather
Well, no further south than Ballina
Which is quite nice if you compare it to Rockhampton
And I'll find a place inside to laugh
Separate the wheat from the chaff
Thats a reference to smoking pot
If you didn’t already know
I feel like I owe it
To someone, yeah
