作词 : Zappa | |
A boring old garage in a residential area with a teen-age bandrehearsing in it. | |
JOE (the main character in the CENTRALSCRUTINIZER'S Special Presentation) sings to us of the trials andtribulations of garage-band husbandry. | |
Central Scrutinizer: | |
We take you now, to a garage, in | |
Canoga Park. | |
Frank Zappa:(It makes it's own sauce...) | |
Joe:It wasn't very large | |
There was just enough room to cram the drums | |
In the corner over by the | |
DodgeIt was a fifty-four | |
With a mashed up door | |
And a cheesy little amp | |
With a sign on the front said "Fender Champ" | |
And a second hand guitar | |
It was a Stratocaster with a whammy bar | |
At this point, | |
LARRY (a guy who will eventually give up music andearn a respectable living as a roadie for a group called Toad-O)joins in the song... | |
Larry:We could jam in | |
Joe's Garage | |
His mama was screamin' | |
His dad was mad | |
We was playin' the same old song | |
In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would | |
Play it all night long | |
It was all we knew, 'n' easy too | |
So we wouldn't get it wrong | |
All we did was bend the string like... | |
Hey!Down in | |
Joe's Garage | |
We didn't have no dope or | |
LSDBut a coupla quartsa beer | |
Would fix it so the intonation | |
Would not offend yer ear | |
And the same old chords goin' over 'n' over | |
Became a symphony | |
We would play it again 'n' again 'n' again' | |
Cause it sounded good to me | |
ONE MORE T | |
IME!We could jam in | |
Joe's Garage | |
His mama was screamin',"TURN IT DOWN!" | |
We was playing' the same old song | |
In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would | |
Play it all night long | |
It was all we knew, and easy too | |
So we wouldn't get it wrong | |
Even if you played it on a saxophone | |
We thought we was pretty good | |
We talked about keepin' the band together' | |
N' we figured that we should' | |
Cause about this time we was gettin' the eye | |
From the girls in the neighborhood | |
They'd all come over 'n' dance aroundlike... | |
Twenty teen-age girls dashin and go | |
STOMP-CLAP, | |
STOMP-CLAP- | |
CLAP...So we picked out a stupid name | |
Had some cards printed up for a coupla bucks' | |
N' we was on our way to fame | |
Got matching suits ' | |
N' Beatle | |
Boots'N' a sign on the back of the car' | |
N' we was ready to work in a | |
GO-GO BarO | |
NE TWO THR | |
EE FOURLET' | |
S SEE IF Y | |
OU GOT SOM | |
E MORE!People seemed to like our song | |
They got up 'n' danced 'n' made a lotta noise | |
An' it wasn't 'fore very long | |
A guy from a company we can't name | |
Said we oughta take his pen' | |
N' sign on the line for a real good time | |
But he didn't tell us when | |
These "good times" would be somethin' | |
That was really happenin' | |
So the band broke up | |
An' it looks like | |
We will never play again... | |
Joe:Guess you only get one chance in life | |
To play a song that goes like...(And, as the band plays their little song,MRS. BORG (who keeps her son SY,in the closet with the vacuum cleaner)screams out the window... | |
Mrs. Borg: | |
Turn it down! | |
Turn it DO | |
WN!I have children sleeping here... | |
Don't you boys know any nice songs? | |
Joe:(Speculating on the future) | |
Well the years was rollin' by, yeah | |
Heavy Metal 'n' | |
Glitter Rock | |
Had caught the public eye, yeah | |
Snotty boys with lipstick on | |
Was really flyin' high, yeah' | |
N' then they got that | |
Disco thing' | |
N' New Wave came along' | |
N' all of a sudden | |
I thought the time | |
Had come for that old song | |
We used to play in "Joe's Garage" | |
And if I am not wrong | |
You will soon be dancin' to... | |
