Hear the beating.
Hear the roar. Tonight, a meeting. What ever for? Have a drink. Have some more. Wander home. Begin to Rome. Right behind you. Wonder why. A billy goat Then starts to cry. An elephant And monkey too. Which soul doctor Prescribed for you. Walk, don't run From such distress. Call your wife And make her guess. She says, "Johnny, Hurry home. I found your cufflinks With a panther bone." "Coming, darling, To tuck you in And polish off That Cheshire grin. The jungle's calling, The line is dead. A tiger's moll Awaits in bed. 12/23/25 ZONE S3E12 It's a real good day.
Jump up and say hooray! Tell me what you want to hear. The crops are looking fine this year. Gee, you've done a real good thing. Softened truth so it don't sting. Instead of wishing I were dead, Just plant some corn over my head. It's a real good thing You've torn our lives. Empty husks of husbands and wives, Smiling happy just for you. Forever nothing else to do. It's fun to watch the things i say Shake your head and blow away. Point your finger and lock your jaw. The damndest thing you ever saw. Thank you, sir. May I have another? Peek a boo and run for cover. We'll be happy to hear your words Replace the songs of little birds. My, you're special. Gosh it's nice. To be a toy in your device. Watch me dance and see me smile. You'll be happy all the while. In the cornfield, we'll rejoice. To live without that little voice That stalks our minds and hates the truth. Oh the carefree life of youth! 12/13/25 ZONE S3E8 Gentleman's pool.
We play by the rules. You know the score. For ever what's more. Got what it takes? These are the stakes. You bet your life. I get the breaks. Rack em up, Charlie Drink from the cup. Untie the knot. Let's see what you got. Your words, they are wise. You've got those kind eyes. But my patience too thin To go looking within. We need a new hero. We need a new goal. Things add up to zero When I'm down in the hole. It's all just an angle Within a blue curse. An eightball scratch tangle. An empty man's purse. What is it with winning? What does it all mean? A perch to look down from. And a trophy to clean. 12/10/25 ZONE S3E5 Today's the day
We sit in court. I hope you've learned To be a sport. Passing judgement's Not so easy. Tends to leave The stomach queasy. Let's get on With what's to come. Verdicts leave me Spent and numb. So here I am Before you now, With little know And less of how. Please forgive me. It's not my place To wipe that smile From off your face. Perhaps you should have Thought it through, When changing lives You never knew. Now it's my turn, I'm afraid, To make damn sure Your bed's been made. 4/6/25 ZONE S2E26 Did you just feel that?
I know I did. Back where we came from I was just a little kid. High in the clouds Over the sea, We're soaring above A long history. All that remains, A strong mystery, High in the clouds Over the sea. The wind's blowing hard. We're in the jet stream. A lofty canard, Things aren't as they seem. How did we get here? Let's drop down and see. The world reappears But it isn't to be. Civilization and Creatures long gone. There's no simple equation For what brought us along. A word to our guests, We've nothing to hide. We're all on this quest, A time bending ride. High in the clouds Over the sea, We're soaring above A long history. Whether we get home Or lost to the sky, The people who love us Will eventually die. 1/25/25 ZONE S2E18 One more room, honey.
Just room for one more. Here for what ails you. It's what you came for. For once, think it over. Even the score. There's just one room, honey. Room for one more. You look somewhat tired, A touch overworked. The doll in your lap Says you're going berserk. At night, while we're sleeping, You get up and walk. Your thoughts always ticking. Your hands are a clock. Arms stretched out, "Welcome. We'd glad take you in." Preparing for take off On the head of a pin. The needle keeps scratching The same skipping song. They still won't believe You were right all along. You're looking good, kitten. May I have this next dance? Fasten your seatbelt. There's a ghost of a chance. 1/20/25 ZONE S2E17 At high noon, we'll work it out.
Eight of you will stand about. Take me down to feel the earth. Get yourself a dollar's worth. Here comes Johnny. Here comes Joe. Here comes Connie In a long black coat. Cara Mia up the hill. Lay me out, be it God's will. In the after, I'll wait for you With alabaster flutes for two. Bring me something I enjoy. A shiny trinket, a little toy. A sack of apples, a loaf of bread. Lay some flowers at my head. A bottle of rye would be so nice. Pair it with my sacrifice. Don't be shy. Don't be afraid. Let's exchange the gifts we've made. Can you help? The lid is stuck. Give me your hand. Once more for luck. A lovely view here from my coffin. No wonder that you come here often. To tell more stories of my life. Then plunge the ground with your buck knife. Set the stakes for your intent. At the wake, you'll pay no rent. Zone S3E7 This too shall pass.
Gas, grass or ass. On the road to find What we can't unwind. The path, a constant stream Of men who've fallen in a dream. Fighting to be men. Those against, the same again. Now they walk and pine Past houses, all tree lined. Throats are thirsty Mouths are dry Only one to wonder why. She is waiting. She is tired. Postulating, her eyes show wild. Comes a stranger along the way. Words of comfort. Songs to play. She is humming In her solace. He is mumbling For the Lord To call us. Go on horseback Or on foot, With a shoulder rucksack And a soldier's boot. 12/8/25 ZONE S3 E4 Dark enamel
