Lyrics
Twilight Zone Blues
Been walking all morning
Down Elm street again
Said I been walking all morning
Down that Elm street again
But I don?t think I can imagine
Where my baby has been
Drink my whiskey in a dimension
Between sight sound and mind
Yeah I drink my whiskey baby
Between sight sound and mind
You know I keep walking down Elm street
Time after time
Chorus:
I got the twilight zone blues, yeah
I pay imaginary dues
I got the twilight zone blues now
I pay imaginary dues
Now I?m thinkin? ?bout my baby
She?s in the twilight zone too
The town ain?t got no people
The water tastes funny too
Said the town ain?t got no people
The water tastes funny too
Every street sign reads the same ya?ll
Every clock is stuck on two
I hear my baby callin?
Hear my name all the time
Oh I hear my baby callin?
I hear my name all the time
And I wonder why it?s dark out
Then I see the twilight sign
(Chorus)
There?s a road sign on the corner
It?s askin? to be read
Said there?s a road sign on the corner
It?s beggin? to be read
But it ain?t no sign for speed ya?ll
It says Twilight Zone ahead
