Lyrics The Jimmy Carl Black Philosophy Lesson - Frank Zappa, The Mothers Of Invention

The Jimmy Carl Black Philosophy Lesson

FZ: At this very moment Jimmy Carl Black, the Indian of the group,
is approaching the stage.
Jimmy Carl, who likes to drink and also likes to
boogie all night long and who is also horny, approaches Underwood in his
transformed state at the piano and asks him this all important question:
JCB: Hey, I thought we were gonna play a Rock & Roll concert.
What is this?
How are you gonna get laid if you dont play rock & roll and drink beer?
You get laid after the concert if you play rock & roll, this kind of crap
you’re not gonna, you’re not gonna get laid anyway with that uniform on.
I’ll tell you what I’m gonna do.
I’m gonna quit.
I’m gonna go out and hustle
me some chick, the hell with you
Ian: Jimmy, you need some discipline
JCB: I’m leaving the group
Ensemble: Boo!
Boo!
FZ: Jimmy Carl, I must inform you, I must inform you, Jimmy Carl,
for your own good, that here in London you’re not gonna get any pussy unless
you look like a popstar.
Fix him up… Mod Jacket…
JCB: Oh Jeezus…
FZ: Frilly Mod Neckpiece, Jimi Hendrix wig, and a Feather Boa
JCB: WAAAAAAAAAAHHH!
FZ: Jimmy Carl Black enters the audience to hustle some young ladies.
Go on Jim, see if you can get any action, and if you get lucky fix us up too.
And if you’re really lucky, get something for the robots… Mmmm,
their little mechanical things are going up and down, up and down…
