Twilight Zone |
TWILIGHT ZONE / TWILIGHT TONE |
MANHATTAN TRANSFER |
By Alan Paul and Jay Graydon, Lyrics by Alan Paul |
(SPOKEN INTRO) |
With a key, you unlock a door to imagination |
Beyond it is another dimension |
A dimension of sight |
A dimension of sound |
A dimension of mind |
You’re moving through a land of both shadow and substance |
Of things and ideas |
Guiding you through this wondrous journey |
Is the hypnotic sound of the twilight tone |
When I hear this melody |
This strange illusion takes over me Through a tunnel of the mind |
Perhaps a present or future time oh, oh Out of nowhere comes this sound |
This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round |
Pyramidal locomotion |
From a mystic unknown zone |
Hearin' the twilight |
Hearin' the twilight, twilight tone |
Unpretentious girl from Memphis |
Saw the future through her third eye |
People came with skepticism |
Picking, testing her precision, no, wo, oh, oh Suddenly they heard this sound |
This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round |
A signpost up ahead is calling |
Through the mystic unknown zone |
Hearin' the twilight |
Twilight swept away, feelin' the rhythm |
Hearin' the twilight |
Twilight swept away, ba da, loo da, ba da loo da Hearin' the twilight |
Twilight tone |
Submitted for your approval. |
One Mr. Miller, who’s about |
To take a trip into oddness and obsolescene, through a Zone whose boundaries are that of imagination. |
Accompanying him on this journey is the mesmerizing |
Sound of the Twilight Tone. |
On a cold & rainy night |
One Mister Miller had a rare flight |
Glen was up there boppin' a rhythm |
Then the engine stopped to listen with him |
Play that beat, oh, oh Suddenly he heard this sound |
This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round |
Now he resides and plays trombone |
