Stink-Foot - Frank Zappa

In the dark

Where all the fevers grow

Under the water

Where the shark bubbles blow

In the mornin'

By yer radio

Do the walls close in t’suffocate ya You ain’t got no friends.

..

An’all the others: they hate ya Does the life you been livin’gotta go, hmmm?

Well, lemme straighten you out

About a place I know.

..

(Get yer shoes 'n socks on people,

It’s right aroun’the corner!)

Out through the night

An’the whispering breezes

To the place where they keep

The Imaginary Diseases,

Out through the night

An’the whispering breezes

To the place where they keep

The Imaginary Diseases, mmm.

..

This has to be the disease for you

Now scientists call this disease

Bromidrosis

But us regular folks

Who might wear tennis shoes

Or an occasional python boot

Know this exquisite little inconvenience

By the name of:

STINK FOOT

Y’know, my python boot is too tight

I couldn’t get it off last night

A week went by, an’now it’s July

I finally got it off

An’my girl-friend cry

You got STINK FOOT!

STINK FOOT, darlin'

Your STINK FOOT puts a hurt on my nose!

STINK FOOT!

STINK FOOT!

I ain’t lyin',

Can you rinse it off, d’you suppose?

Here Fido.

.. Fido.

..

C’mere little puppy.

.. bring the slippers

Arf, arf, arf!

(crash-crumble-bump-bump-bump)

Heh heh heh.

.. sick.

..

Well then Fido got up off the floor an’he rolled over

An’he looked me straight in the eye

An’you know what he said?

Once upon a time

Somebody say to me

(This is a dog talkin’now)

What is your Conceptual Continuity?

Well, I told him right then

(Fido said)

It should be easy to see

The crux of the biscuit

Is the Apostrophe (')

Well, you know

The man who was talkin’to the dog

Looked at the dog an’he said: (sort of staring in desbelief)

You can’t say that!

He said:

IT DOESN’T, 'n YOU CAN’T!

I WON’T, 'n IT DON’T!

IT HASN’T, IT ISN’T, IT EVEN AIN’T

'N IT SHOULDN’T.

..

IT COULDN’T!

He told me NO NO NO!

I told him YES YES YES!

I said: I do it all the time.

..

Ain’t this boogie a mess!
