Twenty-Mile Zone

I was riding in my car Screaming at the night Screaming at the dark Screaming at fright I wasn't doing nothing Just drive about Screaming at the dark Letting it out That's all I was doing Just letting it out Well, along comes a motorcycle Very much to my surprise I said, "Officer, was I speeding" I couldn't see his eyes He said, "No, you weren't speeding" And he felt where his gun was hung He said, "Lady, you were screaming At the top of your lung" And you were, doing it alone You were doing it alone You were screaming in your car In a twenty-mile zone You were doing it alone You were doing it alone You were screaming I said, "I'll roll up all my windows" Don't want to disturb the peace I'm just a creature Who is looking for a little release I said "And what's so wrong with screaming Don't you do it at your games When the quarterback breaks an elbow?" When the boxer beats and maims But you were, doing it alone You were doing it alone You were screaming in your car In a twenty-mile zone You were doing it alone You were doing it alone You were screaming I said, "Animals roar when they feel like Why can't we do that too Instead of screaming 'Banzai baby' In the war, in the human zoo" He said, "I got to take you in now Follow me right behind And let's have no more screaming Like you're out of your mind" So he climbed aboard his cycle And his red-eyed headlight beamed And his motor started spinning And his siren screamed He was doing it alone He was doing it alone He was screaming on his bike In a twenty-mile zone He was doing it alone He was doing it alone He was screaming I was doing it alone I was doing it alone I was screaming in my car In a twenty-mile zone I was doing it alone I was doing it alone I was screaming We were doing it together We were doing it together We were screaming at the dark In a twenty-mile zone We were doing it together We were doing it together We were screaming We were doing it together We were doing it together alone In a twenty-mile zone
