Any Kind Of Pain - Frank Zappa

Broadway The Hard Way, ladies and gentlemen!

Broadway The Hard Way!

You are the girl

Somebody invented

In a grim little office

On Madison Ave

They were specific

They made you terrific:

Red lips;

Blue eyes;

Blonde hair;

Un-wise --

You’re All-American

And, darling, they said so

YOU’D TAKE ANY KIND OF PAIN FROM ME

WOULDN’T YOU, BABY?

YOU’D TAKE ANY KIND OF PAIN FROM ME

WOULDN’T YOU, BABY?

SINCE YOU HAVEN’T GOT A BRAIN

LET ME JUST EXPLAIN:

ANY KIND OF PAIN

IS NEVER A MAYBE

What?

Senator Hollings: Maybe I could make a good rock star;

I don’t know

Her head’s full of bubbles;

Her nose is petite!

She looks like she never

Gets nothin' to eat!

She dines with actors

'N Wall Street characters:

Dull talk;

Nice clothes --

See her?

She blows --

She’s so important

Cause he gets to do talk shows --

AND SHE’D TAKE ANY KIND OF PAIN FROM ME

WOULDN’T YOU, BOBBY?

SHE’D TAKE ANY KIND OF PAIN FROM ME

WOULDN’T YOU, BOBBY?

SINCE YOU HAVEN’T GOT A NAME

LET ME JUST EXPLAIN:

ANY KIND OF PAIN

IS PROBABLY HER HOBBY

She has moves up now;

She’s come a long way --

They give her bunches

Of words she can say!

When she’s in a bold mood

«Confinement Loaf» sounds good --

That’s right

She’s wrong!

Let’s end

Her song

(It seems she’s everywhere

We just can’t escape her --

Is this a miracle of pure evolution?

And all the yuppie boys, they dream they will rape her --

She brings the 80's

To a thrilling conclusion!)

YES, SHE’S EVERY BIT AS TAME AS ME

ISN’T SHE TENDER?

YES, SHE’S EVERY BIT AS LAME AS ME

LET US REMEMBER

SHE GETS ONLY HALF THE BLAME

ONLY HALF THE BLAME

ONLY HALF THE BLAME

UNLESS WE EXTEND HER --
