Cheepnis - Frank Zappa

I ate a hot dog

It tasted real good

Then I watched a movie

From Hollywood

I ate a hot dog

It tasted real good

(Yum-yum yummy-yummy-yum

Yum-yum yummy-yummy-yum)

Then I watched a movie

From Hollywood

(Dum-dum dummy-dummy-dum

Dum-dum dummy-dummy-dum)

Little Miss Muffett on a squat by me, yeah

Took a turn around, I said: Can y’all see now?

The little strings on the Giant Spider?

The Zipper From The Black Lagoon?

(HA HA HA!)

The vents by the tanks where the bubbles go up?

(And the flaps on the side of the moon)

The jelly &paint on the 40 watt bulb

They use when the slime droozle off

The rumples &the wrinkles in the cardboard rock, yeah

And the canvas of the cave is too soft

The suits &the hats &the tie’s too wide

And too short for the scientist man

The chemistry lady with the roll-away mind, yeah

While the monster just ate Japan

Ladies and gentlemen,

The monster,

Which the peasants in this area call FRUNOBULAX

(Apparently a very large poodle dog)

Has just been seen approaching The Power Plant

Bullets can’t stop it

Rockets can’t stop it

We may have to use NUCLEAR FORCE!

HERE COMES THAT POODLE DOG!

BIG AS A BLIMP WITH A RHINESTONE COLLAR

SNAPPIN' OFF THE TREES

LIKE THEY WAS BONSAI’D ORNAMENTS ON A DRY-WOBBLE LANDSCAPE

KEEP IT AWAY!

DON’T LET THE POODLE BITE ME!

WE CAN’T LET IT REPRODUCE!

OH!

SOMEBODY GET OUT THE PANTS!

The National Guard has formed up at the base of the mountain

And is attempting to lure the enormous poodle towards the cave

Where they hope to destroy it with napalm

A thousand of the troopers are now lined up and are calling to the monster…

Here Fido

Here Fido

Here Fido

GOT A GREAT BIG POODLE THING
