Frank Zappa - Stink Foot lyrics

In the dark

Where all the fevers grow

Under the watah

Where the shark bubbles blow

In the morning

By your radio

Do the walls close in to suffocate, yah

You ain't got no friends

And all the others they hate, yah

Does the life you been leading gotta go? (HMMmm?)

(Well let me straighten you out)

About a place I know

(Get your shoes and socks on people, it's right around the corner)

Out through the night and the whispering breezes

To the place where they keep the imaginary diseases

Out through the night and the whispering breezes

To the place where they keep the imaginary diseases

(This has got to be the disease for you

Now scientists call this disease, Brohm-a-drosis

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)

You know

My python boot is too tight

I couldn't get it off last night

A week went by

And now it's July

I finally got it off

And my girlfriend cried, 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, do you suppose?

(Here Fido, Fido, mpt, mpt, mpt, come here little puppy

Bring the slippers

Arf, arf, arf

(C-R-A-S-H)

Huhm, HAH, HAH, HAH... hmhmhm)

STINK!

(Well then Fido got up off the floor, and he rolled over

and he looked me straight in the eye

And you know what he said?

"Once upon a time, somebody say to me"

This is the dog talkin' now

"What is your, conceptual, continuity?"

"Well I told 'em right then", Fido said

"It should be easy to see

"The crux of the biscuit

is the apostrophe"

Well you know, the man that was talking to the dog

looked at the dog, and he said

Sort of staring in disbelief

"You can't say that"

he said

"It doesn't, and you can't, I won't, and it don't

it hasn't, it isn't, it even ain't, and it shouldn't

it couldn't"

He told him, "No, no, no"

I told him, "Yes, yes, yes"

I said, "I do it all the time

Ain't this boogie a mess"?)

The poodle bites, the poodle chews it
