Too obscure?

Reminds me of a footnote in the Penguin edition of Juvenal's Satires. One of the Emperors was crossing a bridge in his 16 horsepower chariot when a woman tried to stop him. He yelled out, 'Make way. I'm the Emperor. I don't have time.' (Or the Italian equivalent.) The woman yells back, 'Then you don't have time to be Emperor.'

If you guys, LH and rock chick, don't have the brains to follow Sorcha's Bluie, how the hell will you ever make sense of a Dylan lyric?
