@wordonfirevideo Did Pink Floyd write 'Dark Side Of The Moon' to match the Wizard of Oz movie? I'd like to know, because they match up perfectly too. Never underestimate the human capacity for seeing patterns where there are none. Have you asked Mr. Dylan if your interpretation is correct? I don't think I'd presume to know what other people thought during a creative process before I had asked them in person. It's very, very presumptious to do so on your own.

Late to the party, but oddly the joker and thief references also evoked in me for awhile now the same image of the two thieves executed on either side of Jesus. The joker - mocking, dismissive of any meaning to life; the thief - a wrongdoer who nevertheless recognizes his wrong, which means he also recognizes what's right. The joker knows neither wrong nor right. He is a nihilist, like so many modern sages. That's what I hear, anyway.

Maybe the plural usage of prince relates to the princes that foreshadowed Christ's coming, like David and Solomon.

I also like the thought that the thief who says 'the hour is getting late" can be the thief in the night of matthew. on another level I hope that the second thief indeed is 'the joker' in some sense the trickster and outsider whom God loves and with whom agreement will be made in the end. perhaps a bit of an allegorism here as to dylan but hey!
