This tidbit came from a website called amIright.com
I thought the perspective was refreshing. Any other contradictory song lyrics from GL come to mind ?

Gordon Lightfoot's, "The House You Live In"

The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Beware of strange faces and dark dingy places
Be careful while bending the law
And the house you live in will never fall down
If you pity the stranger who stands at your door.

Why They're Nonsensical:
So, which is it, Gordon? Do we fear the stranger or pity him?
