"I'm just a sick clown and so is everybody else". I really like this line that Kerouac wrote here and the way that Jay Farrar delivers it. Just seen Jay day the Woody 100 night at Celtic Connections and it is sure that he has great delivery of other peoples songs/lyrics. You only have to listen to Uncle Tupelos version of Moonshiner to hear this.
