Frank Zappa — Outside Now

[Verse 1: Joe] These executives have plooked the fuck out of me And there's still a long time to go before I've Paid my debt to society And all I ever really wanted to do was Play the guitar 'n bend the string like Reent-toont-teent-toont-teent-toont-teenooneenoonee [Verse 2: Joe] I've got it I'll be sullen and withdrawn I'll dwindle off into the twilight realm Of my own secret thoughts I'll lay on my back here 'til dawn In a semi-catatonic state And dream of guitar notes That would irritate An executive kinda guy [Lyric Note 1] And sure enough JOE dreams up a few of those guitar notes that every executive despises: those low ones. Every exec knows it's only the records with the high squeally ones that get to be hits, except for Duane Eddy [Verse 3: Joe] Well, I guess that one did the trick If they only coulda heard it Half-a-dozen of 'em woulda strangled While they was suckin' on each other's dick But that was only a bunch of imaginary Notes I played Just a little extra somethin' To keep me goin' from day to day That's okay I'll be gettin' outta here pretty soon Then I won't have to live In this ugly fuckin' room [Outro] Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Can't wait to see I can't wait to see what it's like On the outside now Outside now [Lyric Note 2] And JOE just lies there, dreaming imaginary guitar notes for years on end, until finally they let him out
