Pronunciation: dill an chan ted

Sentence: When Sweet Marie fell out of love with Rob Fillan, her Bob Dylan wannabe boyfriend, she knew that The Times They Were A Changing. She had become dylanchented with the whole relationship because all he ever said to her were things like Lay Lady Lay and that he was Like A Rolling Stone. Writing her love songs that were actually protest anthems did little to endear Mr. Tambourine Man to her. After she booted him, she knew he was out there, Blowin' in the Wind and if there was Blood on the Tracks,he'd soon be Knock Knock Knockin' on Heaven's Door...assuming bad boys even went there.

Etymology: Dylan (Bob Dylan, singer/songwriter) & Disenchanted (freed from enchantment;no longer enchanted by someone/thing)
