I'll pass. I'm not a fan. There's no question that he did "reach" a lot of people and not in the best way possible. It's probably a satire but it brings up an interesting point. At what point does "surrealist stuff" become good lyric writing? As for the nondenominational religious
parable or moral tale, this stuff IMHO is boring. So the satire about "surrealist stuff"
has a factual basis. The only song I really ever liked of his was "Tomorrow is a Long Time".
Much of "Don't Think Twice" and "Positively Fourth Street" is polemic and bitter. He comes across as a misogynist in song.
