Imagine you wake up in an insane asylum and this is what you see and this is what you hear. Talk about being creeped out. Just add zomies....now you're talking hit show.

I love this song, it's so unusual, the music, the lyrics....I noticed on facebook a quiet period and this song came to mind and although I didn't know the lyrics I remembered. "I'm gonna send out a message to Noah. "hey better send some people down, seems like I'm the only one around....EVERYONE ON EARTH IS OUT OF TOWN." Lonely, scary, but I love it. Thanks Burt and Hal you guys are the best. Masters, Gifted.

if this song isn't in a zombie movie, it needs to be.

@terjecan Google it yourself. I can see where you'd think that. I often misunderstand lyrics to songs. I always research them. Thanks for watching.

It's a song about lonliness

I picture a drunken bum waking up in the morning thinking it's evening. I speak from experience!

This is such a wonderful song. With its' Oompa carnival- like beat, juxtaposed over a1920s ballroom dance string accompaniment,- it seems to be of a former time, however its lyric presents the human experience of observing change so delightfully, it instantly becomes relevant to the listener. The cover art on the original album has always suggested to me a post-apocalyptic image- with B.J.Thomas left walking about an world emptied of people. The song becomes ironic. Its' great! Fantastic job!!

I've always loved this song. It came into my head at the start of my long walk this morning and it's been there ever since. Took me back to the sixth grade? 1970? when it was on the charts....Glad to find it here... ....Ahh, now to look MacArthur Park by Richard Harris...Life is good

@bingotheraccoon Who knows. You can read into it whatever you want. I just thought it worked well with "ghost town" type pictures. Thanks for watching. I admit to being surprised to see someone your age watching a BJ Thomas video. That's refreshing.

I love this song. I never really quite got if it has some hidden meaning or not. At face value, it's catchy, interesting, has a nifty, almost Brechtian quality. But a tad unsettling..? Maybe? Anyhow, thanks for loading it on here. I love it.
