Top Songs By Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Lyrics
The mule kicked off a new one
And the stockings ran up Seam Crooked Sam
Bandana frock stuffed with smoke
And ears out flopped like bowlin' pins
Hog troughs hocked and wallered in cool mud bins
And patent leather hooves
Split in twos
Rooms for rent down t' Ben's
Frendsa danced in a frenzy
Choked a juke bird with froth glass ferns
And turpentine urns her sawdust daily keep
And whiskey creeps down her neck naked front
And red leatherette
Peen button set where her fanny sweat
Raised her wrist-a-fan and a mouse coughed cotton
Through a screen door cracked sand
Rooms rent only to friends
Hat Rack Hotel
Architecture tincture of red Arkies
Pinched the southern belle
And splayed his cracked nail hand
Grey fedora, snappy band
And the camel walls yellow like damp dead chickens
Beak down the hard wood floor
And the music, oh the music
Harp man blew his best lung white shirt
His feet worked like a monkey out the door
And Dora robbed a baby through a dark bebop
Licorice lenses fogged in hot sorrow
Through the floorboards at the general store
Ya' foods still in the hot hand oven
Apple pie cooked through seed bruised stem eye
Sticky in the window of Momma Frame Broke
Rope bell dinglin'
Children, I won't call you once more
