Lyrics Dummy Up - Live At The Roxy, Hollywood/1973 - Frank Zappa feat. The Mothers

Sunrise
Get up in the mornin'
You know, I think it's mornin'
Sun is shinin' bright
I'm gonna get outside
I'm gonna wash my face
'N grab my hat
Put it on my head
I take a walk downtown
Yeah-hey .. .
Because I feel so-oh good
I think I'm gonna take a walk downtown
Hey! Sunlight!
Wo!
Somethin' I never seen before
Been a-walkin' down the street every day
Nobody like you ever passed my way
Maybe there must be too much sun
Couldn't be my hat, must be too much .. .
Wait a minute!
What's that you .. .?
What's that?
What .. .?
What's that?
What .. .?
What's that?
What .. .?
Dummy Up
What is that?
I know what that is, I know what that is .. .
I bet you that's a restaurant menu .. .
Let me see!
Let me see!
Jeff: Not only do you get the Desenex burger ... not only the Desenex burger ... but you are in for a real treat, Jim.
Napoleon: Wait a minute, I think I like that dance better than this ... What are you talkin' about, creep?
Jeff: What I'm talkin' about is you've been in this killer fog down here too long.
Napoleon: What?
Jeff: You need somethin' to get up and go to school with.

FZ: (Heh heh heh!)
Napoleon: Wait a minute ... I think I'll take .. .
Jeff: I like that little dance you were doin' down there .. .
FZ: Jeff Simmons tries to corrupt Napoleon Murphy Brock by showing him a lewd dance and suggesting that he'd smoke a high-school diploma .. .
Napoleon: Hey! What you ... what you .. .? Wait a minute!
Jeff: Hey this, this stuff .. .
Napoleon: I've never seen one of these before ... that's not a menu?
Jeff: This stuff is expensive.
Napoleon: What is that?
Jeff: You shoot it, you'll conserve all winter.
Napoleon: I do what?
Jeff: It last longer.
FZ: Not only do you get the Desenex burger.
Napoleon: No ... no .. .
Jeff: Now come on, try it.
Napoleon: No, no, no.
Jeff: It's really good.
Napoleon: No ... Smoke THAT?!
Jeff: Have I ever lied to you? Have I ever seen you before?
Napoleon: I don't, I don't even know you!
Jeff: Look .. .
Napoleon: I don't even know what that is!
Jeff: Just bef .. .
Napoleon: And you're tellin' me to smoke it?!
Jeff: Just before, we smoked the tapes that you made.
Napoleon: Smoked the tapes?
Jeff: Smoked the tapes of your group.
Napoleon: I think I'd rather dance.
Jeff: You can really get off! Let's try a joint of this.
Napoleon: A WHAT?!
Jeff: A joint!
Napoleon: You mean this kinda joint?
Jeff: No, man! Where you been in livin'? Reseda?
Napoleon: No, San Jose.
FZ: The evil dope pusher is cutting up a white gym sock, formerly owned by Carl Zappa and still damp. The shredded sock will be placed inside of a high-school diploma And ignited with a sulphur preparation .. .
Napoleon: Wait a minute .. .
FZ: His first taste of big city life.
Napoleon: That's okay, wait a minute ... wait .. .
(DUMMY UP .. .)
Jeff: Hey! The roach of this is really gonna be good, so I'll save it .. .
FZ: Have mercy! George: Awright ... awright .. .
What d'you do with that thing?
What do you do with that thing that you have?
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
What do you do
With that thing?
I wanna know
Napoleon: Wait a minute.
FZ: Now the next step of this operation .. .
Napoleon: Wait a minute!
FZ: The evil corrupter of youth is going to take him from Step One, which is a mere high-school diploma stuffed with a gym sock, to Step Two, which is a college-degree stuffed with absolutely nothing at all. Smoke that and it'll really get you out there!
I still don't feel as good as I felt this mornin' ... yeah yeah .. .
FZ: You'll grow out of it .. .
(DUMMY UP!)
I heard it again, somebody said .. .
Jeff: You see this?
Napoleon: What d'you mean? College!
FZ: College!
That's college-rhythm
You mean if I smoke that
It's the same as if ... As if I was at college?
Roll it over up!
Roll it over up!
Roll it over up!
Gimme a .. .
FZ: No no, the college-degree is stuffed with absolutely nothing at all, you get ... you get nothing with your college-degree .. .
Oh ... But that's what I want
FZ: ... I forgot, I'm sorry.
Well,
You get nothin',
But that's what I want
FZ: A true Zen saying: Nothing is what I want ... The results of a higher education!
