John Cale - Twilight Zone lyrics

Hanging with dictators in the south of France
Checking shipments to le Monde Arabe
Obsession with detail precision with terms
Remember you're speaking from the TZ

Your reputation precedes you now
You're getting bored
No longer into the story of the antique road
The milk of human kindness has
Curdled in your cup
You see me staring at it and
Tell me to shut up
Chaucer was to Canterbury what you
Were to the zone
Instead of trying to solve it
You left it alone
A hangout you could call home

Now you're out things aren't going
To be the same
Now you're out of the Twilight Zone

You're feeling unreliable you don't
Like the same things
Manifestly different from where you
Chose to begin the turnaround is brilliant
The execution sublime
You found a way to move
On leaving nothing behind

Now you're out things aren't going
To be the same
Now you're out of the Twilight Zone
