Frank Zappa - Babette lyrics

Don't tell me no, Babbette

(I mean Duke)

Don't you tear my dream

Don't you break my heart

Darling, we could share a love so fine

Please, darling, won't you be mine

Don't tell me no, Babbette

Can't you see that I

Don't wanna make you cry

You're the only one like this before

Please, Babbette, it's you I adore

You I a-do-re

Oh!

Oh, how I want you

I really really want you

I need your love to guide my way

Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh, how I need you

I really really need you

Don't try to bark

And I'll take you to the park

Arf! Arf! Arf!

No, Babbette,

Don't you tear my dream

Don't you break my heart

Oh-wow-wow-woh!

We could share a love

We could share a love...

We-e-e-e could share a life...

You know

Babbette

I know I had to go on a tour with Zappa

And so Marty said to his ever Babbette

Well, you know

When I need a little bit of your lovin', Babbette

I brought along a whistle around my neck

So I can call you Babbette

I said wah-ah-aahh!

Could nobody hear that whistle for Babbette?

Woh! It's a strange dog-whistle

The only dog that could answer the great things

Is a German Shepherd

Golden man pinches...

All Marty's women

You know I said

No, no, no, Babbette

Share my love

Don't make me cry-y

Don't make me cry

Oh-oh! No-oh, no-oh, no-oh, Babbette

Share my love

Don't make me

Don't make me

Don't make me cry-y-y

Oh-wow-wow-wow-woh!

Arf, arf, arf, arf, arf!

Please,

(That's what Marty said to all his dogs)

(Marty, there's a phone call for you!)

Please!!!

It takes nothing to listen to Napoleon sing the song and hear WTF the man says. "answer the great things > Is a German Shepherd > Golden man pinches...". REALLY? I mean, Really? "The only dogs that answer are the GREAT DANES, German Shepherds, Doberman Pinchers.....ALL OF MARTY's WOMEN." He (FZ) says quite plainly, the song is about their road manager, Marty, who has an "affinity" for the canine species (as in, romantically).
