THE QUESTION SONG

What’ll I do today?
What’ll I do today?
I spend all of my time
Just making up my mind,
Walking down that lonesome highway.
Walking down that lonesome highway.

What’ll I say today?
What’ll I say today?
To a nation on the run,
Information with a gun,
Surfing on that super highway.
Surfing on that super highway.

What’ll I see today?
What’ll I see today?
Dissension in the ranks,
Heroes standing before tanks,
Falling down on freedom’s highway.
Falling down on freedom’s highway.

What do I hear today?
What do I hear today?
It’s the rhetoric of hate
Served on hundred-dollar plates,
Traveling on the Great White Way.
Traveling on the Great White Way.

What’ll I be today?
What'll I be today?
A writer of songs,
Or a righter of wrongs?
Riding that divided highway.
Riding that divided highway.

What’ll I do today?
What’ll I do today?
I spend all of my time
Just making up my mind,
Walking down that lonesome highway.
Walking down that lonesome highway.

Finnegans Wake Book 1 Chapter 6
Now there can be no question about it either that I having done as much, have quite got the size of that demilitery young female (we will continue to call her Marge) whose types may be met with in any public garden, wearing a very "dressy" affair, known as an "ethel" of instep length and with a real fur, reduced to 3/9, and muffin cap to tone (they are "angelskin" this fall), ostentatiously hemming apologetically over the shirtness of some "sweet" garment, when she is not sitting on all the free benches avidously reading about "it" but ovidently on the look out for "him" or so "thrilled" about the best dressed dolly pram and beautiful elbow competition or at the movies swallowing sobs and blowing bixed mixcuits over "childe" chaplain's "latest" or on the verge of the gutter with some bobbedhair brieffrocked babyma's toddler (the Smythe-Smythes now keep TWO domes- tics and aspire to THREE male ones, a shover, a butlegger and a sectary) held hostage at armslength, teaching His Infant Majesty how to make waters worse.
