Here's a nice little "folk" song from Zappa. Supposedly all events actually
took place. The song is played rather fast in a possible 2/4 time signature
with most chords taking two beats. Comments are welcome. Enjoy.

Let's Make the Water Turn Black--Mothers of Invention
From "We're only in it for the Money"
Intro Chords: C(major with added notes) Arpeggios on piano
VERSE 1:
C Em/B Am
Now believe me when I tell you that my song is really true
Dm Em Fm G
I want everyone to listen and believe
C Em/B Am
It's about some little people from a long time ago
Bb Eb Ab G
And all the things the neighbors didn't know
C Em/B Am
Early in the morning Daddy Dinky went to work
Dm Em Fm G
Selling lamps and chairs to San Ber'dino Squares
C Em/B Am
And I still remember mama with her apron and her pad
Bb Am D
Feeding all the boys in Ed's Cafe
CHORUS:
G F G Am
Whizzing and pasting and pooting through the day
G Am Bm D
Ronnie helping Kenny helping burn his poots away
G F Eb D
And all the while on a shelf in a shed
C Ab G
Kenny's little creature's on display
VERSE 2:
C Em/B Am
Ronnie saves his numies on a window in his room
Dm Em Fm G
A marvel to be seen; dysentery green
C Em/B Am
While Kenny and his buddies had a game out in the back
F G Am
LET'S MAKE THE WATER TURN BLACK!
BRIDGE:
Em A
We see them after school in a world of their own
Em A
To some it might seem creepy what they do...
Em C B
The neighbors on the right sat and watched them every night
Em D
I bet you'd do the same if they was you
(CHORUS)
VERSE 3:
C Em/B Am
Ronnie's in the Army now and Kenny's taking pills
Dm Em Fm G
Oh! How they yearn to see a bomber burn!
C Em/B Am
Color flashing, thunder crashing, dynamite machine!
F G Am
Wait till the fire turns green...
F G Am
Wait till the fire turns green...
F G A(major)
WAIT TILL THE FIRE TURNS GREEN!

As the second of the conceptual and musical sequels to Zappa's widely regarded masterpiece Hot Rats, The Grand Wazoo is a bit weaker but still definitely worthy of attention. In comparison with Hot Rats, this album is much more built on ...ZAPPA, FRANK - Joe's Garage, Acts II and III (1979)
This album gets a three star rating for the same reason that Act I does: you need the compilation of all three acts together for the true experience of this story. On its own, Acts II & III is a pretty good Zappa album, beginning with ... ZAPPA, FRANK - Chunga's Revenge (1970)
One of Zappa's stronger early albums. This album blends the focus of Hot Rats with the early psychedelic insanity of the Mothers music. So parts of the album play like straightforward quality music, while other parts sound like little ... ZAPPA, FRANK - Joe's Garage, Act I (1979)
I give the compilation disc of all three acts four stars but the two individual parts on three stars each? Preposterous. In truth, however, there is a good reason for that. The problem with these releases being split is a matter of ... ZAPPA, FRANK - Joe's Garage, Acts I, II and III (1987)
I guess I'm going to review this compilation, as such, because it's the only CD version I could seem to find. I dare say this is the height of Frank Zappa's ridiculousness, which is a very dangerous statement to those who know his ... |
