The earnest young folk singer strumming his guitar earnestly doing his best to be both entertaining and sincere
He's got the conviction of his beliefs, he's got his ideals
He's convinced he can make a difference and provide a few insights, or at least a bit of reflection
Most of the people in the place are staring off into space, stirring drinks listlessly and wondering where to go next
Not one person aware that he's resorted to open D tuning
In the hopes of catching someone's ear with the incorporation of a riff first played by Harrison on Here Comes The Sun
A couple gets up to dance to a song that was never meant to be danced to, and the balladeer lets out a frustrated sigh
Should have seen that coming, with the shuffle beat and all
There are twenty or so folks in the place tonight, there are twenty or so bored and disinterested people tapping their toes
And all the earnest kid wants to do is get through his set
