프랭크 자파의 ‘75년 작품으로 과거의 다소 복잡하고 실험적인 모습에서 탈피 원초적인 락 음악의 세계를 노래한 중반기 사운드를 대표하는 수작 앨범이다. 특히 역시 원년 멤버인 캡틴 비프 하트, 조지 듀크 등의 원년 멤버들의 연주도 훌륭하지만 게스트로 출연한 자니 기타 왓슨의 카리스마 넘치는 기타 연주는 눈여겨 볼만한 볼거리를 제공하고 있다. 특히 드라마틱한 구성과 박진감 넘치는 전개가 인상적인 ‘Andy’는 반드시 들어보아야 될 필청트랙. .... ....
Did a vehicle Come from somewhere out there Just to land in the Andes? Was it round And did it have A motor Or was it Something Different
Did a vehicle Did a vehicle Did a vehicle Fly along the mountains And find a place to park itself
Or did someone Build a place To leave a space For such a vehicle to land
Did a vehicle Come from somewhere out there Did a vehicle Come from somewhere out there Did the indians, first on the bill Carve up the hill
Did a booger-bear Come from somewhere out there Just to land in the Andes? Was she round And did she have a motor Or was she something different
Guacamole Queen Guacamole Queen Guacamole Queen Guacamole Queen At the Armadillo in Austin Texas, her aura, Or did someone build a place Or leave a space for Chester's Thing to land (Chester's Thing... on Ruth) Did a booger-beer Come from somewhere out there Did a booger-bear Come from somewhere out there Did the Indians, first on the bill Carve up her hill On Ruth On Ruth That's Ruth

She was the daughter of a wealthy Florentine Pogen Read 'em 'n weep Was her adjustable slogan
She was a debutante daisy With a color-note organ Deep in the street She drove a '59 Morgan
That's the kinda step she takes When her hot breaks hot brakes That's the kinda sound she makes (ooh, let go uh me) When her crab cakes (Arf arf arf)
She didn't like it when her fan belt Shrunk & got shorter (Ointment) Battery leak could nearly cost her a quarter
She didn't want to stay home An' watch the pestle go mortar Later she speaks On how Perellis might court her
Na-na-na-noo, etc.
She was the daughter Ah-ah-ahhh Of a wealthy Florentine Pogen Po-oh-wo-oh-oh Po-oh-wo-oh-oh Po-oh-wo-oh-oh Ga-ya-ee-annnn
Read 'em 'n weep Read 'em 'n weep Read 'em 'n weep etc.

Evelyn, a modified dog Viewed the quivering fringe of a special doily Draped across the piano, with some surprise
In the darkened room Where the chairs dismayed And the horrible curtains Muffled the rain She could hardly believe her eyes
A curious breeze A garlic breath Which sounded like a snore Somewhere near the Steinway (or even from within) Had caused the doily fringe to waft & tremble in the gloom
Evelyn, a dog, having undergone Further modification Pondered the significance of short-person behavior In pedal-depressed panchromatic resonance And other highly ambient domains...

She lives in Mojave in a Winnebago His name is Bobby, he looks like a potato
She's in love with a boy >From the rodeo Who pulls the rope on the chute When they let those suckers go
He's a slobberin' drunk at the Palomino They give him thirty days in San Ber'dino
Well there's forty-four men Stashed away in tank "C" An' there's only one shower But it don't apply to Bobby
You may think they're Dumb an' lonely But you're wrong 'Cause their love is strong Stacked-up hair An' a cheap little ring They don't care 'Cause it don't mean a thing
Looka there... They don't care
Best-est way that They can feel-o Out on the highway Rollin' a wheel-o He's her Tootsie She's for real-o Trailer park heaven It's a real good deal-o Real good deal-o Real good deal-o Real good deal-o
The rest of their lives In San Ber'dino Gonna spend the rest of their lives In San Ber'dino The rest of their lives In San Ber'dino Come on with me Come on with me Come on with me Down in San Ber'dino Just 60 miles, 60 miles Down the San Ber'dino freeway They got some dark green air An' you can choke all day That's right! Gonna spend the rest of their lives Rest of their lives Rest of their lives
