Manhattan Transfer

Manhattan Transfer - Twilight Zone lyrics

(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

In the mystic unknown zone

Hearin' the twilight (repeat many times)

(Hearin' the twilight)
