Time Warp (Bonus Track)

(Album: The Car Over The Lake Album - 1975)

Like Houdini in the river with a lock he couldn't see
When you think you hit the bottom then you better find the key
Like Custer at the Horn when he turned around and said
"When you think you fin'lly got 'em, you're just as good as dead"

It's a time warp putting wrinkles in your skin
It's a rockabilly music make you silly in the end
It's a time warp putting circles on your eyes
It's a rockabilly music that's a blessing in disguise

Like Ponce de Leon speaking Spanish in the swamp
"I was looking for a fountain, but it's water that I want"
Like Pike at the top and ev'ry other freak
"I was looking for a mountain, I took a little peak"

It's a time warp putting wrinkles in your skin
It's a rockabilly music make you silly in the end
It's a time warp putting circles on your eyes
It's a rockabilly music that's a blessing in disguise

Like Buddha at the sermon when he didn't say a word
If you think you hear a flower, it's a flower that you heard
Like da Vinci on the roof with his arm in a sling
"A man's got the power, but a bird's got the wing"

It's a time warp putting wrinkles in your skin
It's a rockabilly music make you silly in the end
It's a time warp putting circles on your eyes
It's a rockabilly music that's a blessing in disguise

Like Vincent Van Gogh when he chopped off his ear
"I'd like to give her twenty, but I still gotta hear"
Like Crockett at the wall looking back to Tennessee
"The living costs you plenty, but the dyin's still for free"

It's a time warp putting wrinkles in your skin
It's a rockabilly music make you silly in the end
It's a time warp putting circles on your eyes
It's a rockabilly music that's a blessing in disguise
