Stink-Foot Frank Zappa
STINKFOOT (Frank Zappa) from Apostrophe
Intro
C F Gm (Bass plays C Eb E F G Bb G) Riff Variant 1
C F Gm (Bass plays C Eb E F G Bb G) Riff Variant 1
In the dark, where all the fevers grow
(Carries on)
Under the water, where the shark bubbles blow
In the mornin' by yer radio
C Bb Gm (Bass plays C C? Bb G Bb G) Riff Variant 2
Do the walls close in t' suffocate ya
(Carries on)
You ain't got no friends, ?n' all the others they hate ya
Does the life you been livin' gotta go, hmmm?
Bb C F Gm continues with variant 1
Well, lemme straighten you out, about a place I know...
(Get yer shoes 'n socks on people, It's right aroun' the corner!)
Out through the night an' the whispering breezes
To the place where they keep the Imaginary Diseases
Out through the night an' the whispering breezes
To the place where they keep the Imaginary Diseases, mmm...
This has to be the disease for you. Now scientists call this disease
Bromidrosis, but us regular folks, who might wear tennis shoes
Or an occasional python boot know this exquisite little inconvenience
by the name of:
[Cdim]STINK FOOT
C Bb Gm (Bass plays C C? Bb F F# G)Variant 3
Y'know, my python boot is too tight, I couldn't get it off last night
(Carries On)
A week went by, an' now it's July, I finally got it off an' my girl-friend cry
"You got STINK FOOT! STINK FOOT, darlin' Your STINK FOOT puts a hurt on my nose!
STINK FOOT! STINK FOOT! I ain't lyin', can you rinse it off, d'you suppose?"
Chromatic Bit Over
C5 C#5 D5 D#5 E5 F5 F#5 G5 (finishes at sick)
Here Fido... Fido... Come here little puppy... bring the slippers
"Arf, arf, arf!" (crash-crumble-bump-bump-bump) Heh heh heh... sick...
Guitar Solo (over Riff variant 2)
Chords just before the Solo ends Bb F F Cm
C Bb Gm (Bass plays C C? Bb G Bb G) Riff Variant 2
Well then Fido got up off the floor an' he rolled over
(Carries On)
An' he looked me straight in the eye an' you know what he said?
Once upon a time somebody say to me (This is a dog talkin' now)
What is your Conceptual Continuity?
Well, I told him right then (Fido said) It should be easy to see
The crux of the biscuit is the Apostrophe
Well, you know the man who was talkin' to the dog
Looked at the dog an' he said: (sort of staring in disbelief)
"You can't say that!" He said:
"IT DOESN'T, 'n YOU CAN'T! I WON'T, 'n IT DON'T!
IT HASN'T, IT ISN'T, IT EVEN AIN'T 'N IT SHOULDN'T...
IT COULDN'T!" He told me NO NO NO! I told him YES YES YES!
I said: "I do it all the time...Ain't this boogie a mess!"
Over Hard Driving (12 to the Bar)
