Song Lyrics

Frank Zappa (vocals)
Ike Willis (background vocals)
Ray White (background vocals)
Napoleon Murphy Brock (background vocals)
Bobby Martin (saxophone, falsetto)
Brad Cole (piano)
Scott Thunes (bass)
Chad Wackerman (drums)

Be in my video,
Darling, every night
I will rent a cage for you
And mi-j-i-nits dressed in white
(teeny-little-tiny-little...)

Twirl around in a lap dissolve
Pretend to sing the words
I`ll rent a gleaming limousine;
Release a flock of Ber-herna-herna-herna
Herna-her-nerds

Wear a leather collar
And a dagger in your ear
(Stabbin` and a-stabbin` and a-stabbin` and a-stabbin` at you-ou-ou-ou-ou)
I will make you smell the glove
And try to look sincere, then we`ll

Dance the blues (Oh yes)
Let`s dance the blues (We`ll dance the blues)
Let`s dance the blues (We`ll dance them very much)
Under the megawatt moonlight

Pretend to be Chinese,
(One-hung-low)
I`ll make you wear red shoes
There`s a cheesy atom bomb explosion
All the big groups use

Atomic light will shine
Through an old venetian blind
Making patterens on your face,
Then it cuts to outer space

With its billions & billions &
Billions & billions and

Be in my video
Darling, every night
Everyone in cable-land
Will say you`re `outta-sight`

You can show your legs
While you`re getting in the car, then
I will look repulsive
While I mangle my guitar

Reen-toon-teen-toon-teen-toon
Tee-nu-nee-nu-nee,
Moo-ahhhh

Reen-toon-teen-toon-teen-toon
Tee-nu-nee-nu-nee,
Moo-ahhhh

Reen-toon-teen-toon-teen-toon
Tee-nu-nee-nu-nee,
Moo-ahhhh

Tee-nu-nee-nu-nee,
Moo-ahhhh
Tee-nu-nee-nu-nee,
Moo-ahhhh-wah-wah-wah!

After all the closeup shots of you
In bondage leather
They`ll spray an alley with a hose
And we`ll escape together

Then we`ll dance the blues again (Oh yes, we`ll dance the blues)
Let`s dance the blues again (Sure we will)
Let`s dance the blues again (We`ll dance them blues)
In the middle of an alley

Let`s dance your face (Let`s dance your face)
Let`s dance your lips (And dance your lips)
Let`s dance your nose (We`ll dance your nose)
And then we`ll dance your sinus!

Wooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooooooo!
