Thoughts in time and out of season,
the hitchhiker stood by the side of the road and leveled his thumb,
in the calm calculus of reason.
Hi. How you doin'? I just got back into town L.A.
I was out on the desert for awhile
("Riders on the storm")
Yeah. In the middle of it
("Riders on the storm")
Right...
("Into this world we're born")
Hey, listen, man, I really got a problem
("Into this world we're thrown")
When I was out on the desert, ya know
("Like a dog without a bone, an actor out on loan")
I don't know how to tell you
("Riders on the storm")
but, ah, I killed somebody
("There's a killer on the road")
No...
("His brain is squirming like a toad")
It's no big deal, ya know
I don't think anybody will find out about it, but...
("take a long holiday")
just, ah...
("Let your children play")
this guy gave me a ride, and um...
("If you give this man a ride")
started giving me a lot of trouble
("Sweet memory will die")
and I just, I couldn't take it, ya know
("Killer on the road")
And I wasted him
("Yeah....")
