How about the possibility that Dick wrote "mess up" to remind himself that he maybe erroneously titled the song "It's a Good Thing", and also forgot to put a comma between the words "mess up", "It's a Good Thing", "Cardboard Cowboy"?
According to DeadLists Digests #534: ftp://gdead.berkeley.edu/pub/gdead/set-lists/DEADLIST_PROJECT/digest-archive/v01.n534 Dick Latvala has crossed out "it's a good thing" and written "MESS UP a GOOD tHING CARDBOARD COWBOY". Is this the real name of the song we call "Cardboard Cowboy"? Or did Dick forget to put a comma after 'Mess Up a Good thing' and the next song would be 'Carboard Cowboy'? ===== __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
