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 LA
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
