Frank Zappa - Cheepnis lyrics

Your rating:

It tasted real good
 Then I watched a movie
 From Hollywood

 (repeat)

 Little Miss Muffett on a squat by me
 Took a turn around, I said: Can y'all see?
 The little strings on the Giant Spider?"
 The Zipper From The Black Lagoon?
 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
 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
 And 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 t
and are calling to the monster...
 Here Fido
 Here Fido
 Here Fido

 GOT A GREAT BIG SLIMEY THING
 GOT A GREAT BIG HEAVY THING
 GOT A GREAT BIG POODLE THING
 GOT A GREAT BIG HAIRY THING

 (repeat)

 C'mon! Everybody! Let's go!
 Get the distilled water! Get the canned goods!
 Get the toilet paper! You know we need it!

 GO TO DA SHELTER
 MY BABY, MY BABY,
 GO TO DA SHELTER
 GO TO DA SHELTER

 (repeat)

 Little Miss Muffett on a squat by me,
 Can ya see the little string danglin' down
 Makes the legs go wabble an' the mouth flop shut
 An' the HORRIBLE EYE, HORRIBLE EYE, HORRIBLE EYE
 Go rollin' around
 Can y'see it all
 Can y'see it from here
 Can y'laugh till yer weak on yer knees
 If you can't, I'm sorry 'cause that's
 all I wanna know
 I need a little more cheepnis please
 Baby, I'm sorry 'cause it's all I wanna know
 I need a little more cheepnis please
 Baby, I'm sorry 'cause it's all I wanna know
 I need a little more cheepnis please

Big as a blimp with a rhinestone collar! Reminds me of someone, let's see, who could that be? Missing: complexion like a boiled lobster with an alien creature living on top of his head. Not to worry, it will come to me.
