Bobs Pets & Peas

If you listen closely to Blowing in the Wind by Bob Dylan you can hear:

"The ants are my friends,
they're blowin' in the wind
The ants are a-blowin' in the wind."

In Not Dark Yet the lyrics go:
"My sensitive manatee has gone down the drain."

In his song Man of Peace Dylan makes reference to the Exorcist:

"You know sometimes Satan comes as a can of peas."


Not surprising that Bob Dylan would turn up with some misheard lyrics considering his poor diction and frequent nasal tones. I'm sure if he turned up on Australian Idol the judges wouldn’t let him past the first stage audition for those same reasons.


I know he's not huge on material things but considering how successful he is and how often he is in the public eye, you'd think by now he would splash out and buy a comb.
