Because Every Entertainment Forum Needs A Zappa Thread!

[Grizzly]

Nah. . .only a few minutes, actually. You should see Billy The Mountain, or the Adventures Of Greg Peccary. . .Zappa can throw a lot of lyrics at you in a short amount of time. He does the same thing with the musical content. You can listen to a two or three minute song dozens of times before you fully understand everything that's going on. This gives a very disheartening impression to many when they first listen to Zappa.

It's almost like a magic spell - only those with the right ears will want to listen to it again, and only those who can listen over and over will be able to have a hope of comprehending it. It helps keep the dullards at bay if you ask me.

I'm a little pimp with my hair gassed back
Pair a khaki pants with my shoe shined black

Got a little lady . . . walk the street
Tellin' all the boys that she cain't be beat

Twenny dollah bill (I can set you straight)
Meet me onna corner boy 'n don't be late

Man in a suit with a bow-tie neck
Wanna buy a grunt with a third party check

Standin' onna porch of the Lido Hotel
Floozies in the lobby love the way I sell:
