Frank Zappa - I'm A Band Leader lyrics

Captain beefheart (vocals) I'm a band leader. not only can i drink a whole lot, but i play 23 different instruments , too and i don't even know how to read music. self-taught, you know. couldnt tell it, though, to hear me play. when i play and sway in rhythm to the catchy little tunes that i know for five miles around get hot pants for me, hotcha! Last night was pretty good for a wednesday. we got ten requests for, we got bill bailey, and we played them all and we got seven people came up for the twist contest. i gave away a box with two small bottles of champagne imported from europe (heh) and kissed the girl who won and shook hands with the guy she was with. he didnt mind when i kissed her because i'm important. We have a new routine. been working on it for three weeks or more. i pretend i'm a queer and the sax player pretends he's a queer, too, and later on in the show, (thisll k** ya) we kiss each other so that it looks to the audience like we kiss each other on the mouth. (heh). when we go... into a fast number, god, the people love it! wait... till... we... get to las vegas! (ha-heh-heh)
