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 ah...



"If you give this man a ride"



started giving me a lot of trouble



"Sweet family will die"



and I just couldn't take it, ya know



"Killer on the road"



And I wasted him



Yeah
