Marlene Palmer. Made from Scratch was my first demo album.
I'm working on Still Scratchin' now.
I don't really have a "band" . It's just me and my guitar. I've asked a few friends to collaborate with me and these songs are the outcome.
Story behind the song
Strange doings on the I-10 in Southern Arizona
Lyrics
THE THING ? ( AT THE THING)
© Marlene Palmer 2007
V1.
I gotta say I’ve seen it all , from El A to Daytona
I roll fearless on the interstate through Southern Arizona
Something I’d hallucinate, at half past six Coronas
The Thing at the Thing is off the wall
(Speaking) Why, I stood there petrified and appalled
Chorus:
It’s amazing and unique...........So strange, it’s a freak
If you’re heading East or West
Just pull in for a rest
And see The Thing at the Thing, On the I-ten.
V2:
It’s an interstate diversion, there at exit three two two
It’s abnormal and uncommon. What it is, I got no clue
Truckers tremble there in fear. They can’t believe it’s true
But, The Thing at The Thing will cause confusion
( Speaking )Why, You’ll think it’s an optical delusion.
Repeat the chorus
V3.
Parked at The Thing, I had a dream, and woke up in a fright.
The Thing was thumbin’ for a ride, out there in my headlights
Now, If that dream came true, Oh what a scary sight.
You know, The Thing at The Thing Is so extreme
( Speaking) It could cause the end of all your self. esteem.
Bridge:
Scholars look for answers in the desert dust
But the desert has no answers. It only offered up
The Thing...The Thing....The Thing ..The Thing.
Repeat the chorus.
