    “When you were young and your heart
    Was an open book
    You used to say live and let live
    (You know you did, you know you did, you know you did)
    But if this ever changing world in which we're living
    Makes you give in a cry”

    Paul Simon is 84 today
    responsible for so much of the
    American soul, in my opinion

    Live and learn from fools and from sages
    You know it's true, oh
    All the things come back to you”

    Speaking of Dylan, A Hard Rain Gonna Fall might be fit for the times

    And the time will come when you see we're all one
    And life flows on within you and without you

    Or, "The times they are a-changin''

    The whole song is as appropriate as ever!

    By Bob Dylan

    Come gather 'round, people, wherever you roam
    And admit that the waters around you have grown
    And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
    If your time to you is worth saving
    And you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone
    For the times, they are a-changin'

    [Verse 2]
    Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen
    And keep your eyes wide, the chance won't come again
    And don't speak too soon, for the wheel's still in spin
    And there's no tellin' who that it's namin'
    For the loser now will be later to win
    For the times, they are a-changin'


    [Verse 3]
    Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call
    Don't stand in the doorway, don't block up the hall
    For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled
    The battle outside ragin'
    Will soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
    For the times, they are a-changin'

    [Verse 4]
    Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
    And don't criticize what you can't understand
    Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
    Your old road is rapidly agin'
    Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand
    For the times, they are a-changin'

    [Verse 5]
    The line, it is drawn, the curse, it is cast
    The slow one now will later be fast
    As the present now will later be past
    The order is rapidly fadin'
    And the first one now will later be last
    For the times, they are a-changin

    "He not busy being born, is busy dying" either that, or
    "Oop-bip-bip, Oop-bip-bip, yeah!"
