Much as I like Burdon, (less so Dylan) I think the song presents the ol' false duality, the Hegalian dialect. (That we must serve, and that we must serve a God or a Devil) I serve myself.. It is only by primarily serving myself that I can even remotely begin to assist others, if only by staying out of their way. I live in wonderment that somewhere deep in my cells, there is a memory of running away, hiding, from the masters of the church, and their idiot dialect that infects us to this day.
