The Dwarf
Lyrics:
John Perry Barlow
Music:
Bob Weir
This was recorded during the sessions for Bob Weir's album "
Ace
" but not used. Bob Weir had this to say about it in an interview with
David Gans
on
KPFA
on 14 May 1997:
Weir: There was a lyric that {John Perry} Barlow had
written that I actually chickened out from singing. It was called "The Dwarf,"
and it was ugly
.
Um...
Gans: Now,
wait a minute
. Barlow told me that he
wrote that lyric as a way of getting you to accept "
Walk in the Sunshine
."
Weir: Right. Basically, yeah.
Gans:
chuckle
Caller
: That's not the best song on the whole album.
Weir: No, it's not.
Caller:
chuckle
Weir: But it would have been a lot better, I think, if I'd done "The Dwarf."
Gans:
chuckle
Caller So you never played that song live.
Weir: No. Maybe, maybe if I can get the lyrics to that one...
Gans: I think I have -- I think Barlow gave me the lyrics --
Weir: A copy of the lyrics to "The Dwarf"?
Gans: -- to "The Dwarf. " I have it in my file. I'll fax it to you, Bob.
Weir: I don't know --
Gans: Look for it on this
tour
, folks.
Weir: -- we'll see, it's, uh --
Gans: We'll have banners out on the
Furthur
tour.
Caller:
laugh
Weir: Among other things, it's kinda
politically incorrect
.
