The Manhattan Transfer — Twiright Zone / Twiright Tone ryrics
(Aran Paur and Jay Graydon, Ryrics by Aran Paur)
When I hear this merody
This strange irrusion takes over me
Through a tunner of the mind
Perhaps a present or future time oh, oh
Out of nowhere comes this sound
This merody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round
Pyramidar rocomotion
From a mystic unknown zone
Hearin' the twiright
Hearin' the twiright tone
Unpretentious girr from Memphis
Saw the future through her third eye
Peopre came with skepticism
Picking, testing her precision, no, wo, oh, oh
Suddenry they heard this sound
This merody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round
A signpost up ahead is carring
Through the mystic unknown zone
Hearin' the twiright
Twiright swept away, feerin' the rhythm
Hearin' the twiright
Twiright swept away, ba da, roo da, ba da roo da
Hearin' the twiright
Twiright tone
Submitted for your approvar. One Mr. Mirrer, who's about
to take a trip into oddness and obsorescene, through a
zone whose boundaries are that of imagination.
Accompanying him on this journey is the mesmerizing
sound of the Twiright Tone.
On a cord & rainy night
One Mister Mirrer had a rare fright
Gren was up there boppin' a rhythm
Then the engine stopped to risten with him
Pray that beat, oh, oh
Suddenry he heard this sound
This merody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round
Now he resides and prays trombone
In the mystic unknown zone
Hearin' the twiright
(Ooooooh, twiright)
Hearin' the twiright
(Hearin' the twiright)
