(Spoken Word – acoustic - electric guitar strumming in the background) "You're travelling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead - your next stop, the Twilight Zone!" "There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area we call the Twilight Zone." "You're travelling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination - Next stop, the Twilight Zone!" "You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension - a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into the Twilight Zone!" "This highway leads to the shadowy tip of reality: you're on a through route to the land of the different, the bizarre, the unexplainable...Go as far as you like on this road. Its limits are only those of mind itself. Ladies and Gentlemen, you're entering the wondrous dimension of imagination. Next stop....The Twilight Zone." [Intro — Eerie Sci-Fi Theme / Radio Static / Theremin: Tick-tock… tick-tock… ] One dimension ends… another begins. Ten strange stories… where do we begin? The clock strikes twelve, the lights turn low, There's someplace strange that everybody knows! Bomp-bomp-bomp! You're entering… THE TWILIGHT ZONE! [Verse 1 — Upbeat 1960s Rock & Roll] There's a man with all the time in the world, But his whole life's been shattered and hurled! He found his books, but the world disappeared, Now he's dancing with the silence and nobody's here! Maple Street is shaking, everybody's afraid, The neighbors start accusing as the streetlights fade! A little bit of paranoia, a whole lot of doubt, When the power goes down, watch the madness come out! [Pre-Chorus — Doo-Wop Harmonies] Sha-na-na-na! What's real and what's not? Sha-na-na-na! Give it everything you've got! The world is turning upside down tonight, Come on everybody, step into the light! [Chorus — Explosive Dance-Floor Hook] Twist! Twist! In the Twilight Zone! Shake! Shake! You're never alone! Round and round, let the strange world spin, You don't know where the nightmare ends or begins! Twist! Twist! Let the mystery roll! Shake your body, lose control! From the strangest dream to the great unknown, Everybody's dancing in the Twilight Zone! [Verse 2 — Funky Bass / Gothic Carnival Strings] The beauty queens are hiding what they really look like, One look in the mirror and the truth comes to light! A gremlin on the airplane, tapping on the wing, The passengers are screaming, but the band begins to swing! The aliens bring dinner with a menu from the stars, But there's a little secret hidden underneath the bars! A cookbook with a message that will turn your stomach cold, The punchline is delicious, but the ending's getting old! [Pre-Chorus — Rising Strings and Handclaps] Sha-na-na-na! Can you hear the ticking clock? Sha-na-na-na! There's a stranger at the lock! Every twist and turn, another mystery shown, Come on everybody, dance into the Zone! [Chorus — Bigger Brass and Group Vocals] Twist! Twist! In the Twilight Zone! Shake! Shake! You're never alone! Round and round, let the strange world spin, You don't know where the nightmare ends or begins! Twist! Twist! Let the mystery roll! Shake your body, lose control! From the strangest dream to the great unknown, Everybody's dancing in the Twilight Zone! [Dance Break — Episode Roll Call / Spooky Funk Theremin glides over a pounding bass line] DJ: Time Enough at Last! Crowd: READ ALL NIGHT! DJ: Maple Street! Crowd: SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT! DJ: Eye of the Beholder! Crowd: LOOK OUTSIDE! DJ: Nightmare at 20,000 Feet! Crowd: HOLD ON TIGHT! DJ: To Serve Man! Crowd: WHAT'S FOR DINNER? DJ: It's a Good Life! Crowd: HE'S THE WINNER! DJ: Walking Distance! Crowd: TAKE A RIDE! DJ: The Obsolete Man! Crowd: DON'T YOU HIDE! DJ: The After Hours! Crowd: WHO'S THAT GIRL? DJ: Five Characters! Crowd: TURN THE WORLD! (Instrumental explosion: surf guitar, organ, brass, strings, handclaps, and driving drums.) [Verse 3 — Fast-Paced 1960s Dance Rock] A little boy can make your every wish come true, But you'd better watch your thoughts and everything you do! A grown man walks the streets where he used to play, Trying to find the childhood that has slipped away! A man stands on trial for the words he dares to say, In a world that doesn't want him thinking anyway! A department store mannequin has a secret of her own, And five little strangers wonder why they're all alone! [Bridge — Cinematic Strings / Eeri
