Zappa Frank - Mudd Club LYRICS

---- ----

Hey, they're really dancin'
They're on auto-destruct
On the floor
On the pipe
Bouncin' off-a the wall
Hey, the people here are really
Tearin' it up
On the side
In the back
By the front of the stage

They ain't really crazy
You can take it from me
I should know
'Cause I go
Every time I'm in town

If you never tried it
Lemme straighten you out
It's the best kinda place
To unfasten yerself

MUDD CLUB
All the way downtown
MUDD CLUB
They ain't messin' around
Just turn to the left 'n look around
It's there somewhere
If you ain't found it, better
Hurry up
The folks down there's on *auto-destruct*
And so can *you be too*
(Fact of the matter
it's made for you...)
Try it on a Saturday 'bout four o'clock in
the mornin'
Or even on a Monday at midnight
When there's just a few of them
*Fabulous Poodles*
Doin' the Peppermint Twist *for real*

In black sack dresses with nine inch
heels
And then a guy with a blue mohawk
comes in

In *Serious Leather...*
(And all the rest of whom for which
To whensonever of partially
indeterminate
Bio-chemical degradation
Seek the path to sudsy yellow nozzle
Of their foaming nocturnal
Parametric digital whole-wheat
inter-faith
Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta
In *Serious Leather...Serious Chains*
Then they work the wall
'N work the floor
'N work the pipe
'N work the wall some more
In *Serious Leather*
In *Serious Chains*
In *Serious Clothing*
>From when they come downtown

>From the ruins of Studio 54
To twist 'n frugg
In an arrogant gesture
To the best of what the 20th Century has
to offer, at the
MUDD CLUB

Al Malkin's down there now
Looking for a Virgin with nice breath...
*(Why, maybe it's you...
And you don't even know it!)*

Hey, they're really dancin'
They're on auto-destruct
On the floor
On the pipe
Bouncin' off-a the wall

Hey, the people here are really
Tearin' it up
On the side
In the back
By the front of the stage

They ain't really crazy
You can take it from me
I should know
'Cause I go
Every time I'm in town

If you never tried it
Lemme straighten you out
It's the best kinda place
To unfasten yerself

WORK THE WALL
WORK THE FLOOR
WORK THE PIPE
IN SERIOUS PAIN
