Camarillo Brillo [Cheaper Than Cheep] Lyrics

[Verse 1: Frank Zappa, George Duke]
She had that Camarillo brillo
Flamin' out along her head
I mean her Mendocino bean-o
By where some bugs had made it red
She ruled the Toads of the Short Forest
And every newt in Idaho
And every cricket who had chorused
By the bush in Buffalo (Oh, yeah)
She said she was a Magic Mama (Oh yeah)
And she could throw a mean Tarot
And carried on without a comma
That she was someone I should know

[Chorus: Frank Zappa, George Duke, Napoleon Murphy Brock, Frank Zappa]
She had a snake for a pet and an amulet
And she was breeding a dwarf, but she wasn't done yet
She had gray-green skin, a doll with a pin
I told her she was alright, but I couldn't come in
(Actually I couldn't came in right about that moment)

[Spoken Word Interlude]
FZ: And so she— Hey, come on! Everybody give a shot at this guy down here trying to make the audience look like they're having a good time. If this isn't the most fraudulent ridiculous Hollywood ending to a television show I've ever seen. Everybody watch him going, "Herna-herna-herna-herna"

[Verse 2: Frank Zappa, George Duke]
And so she wandered through the door-way (Ohh yeah)
Just like a shadow from the tomb
She said her stereo was four-way
An' I'd just love it in her room
Well, I was born to have adventure (Oh yeah)
So I just followed up the steps
Right past her fuming incense stencher
To where she hung her castanets (God, this is fraudulent!)
She stripped away her rancid poncho (Peek-a-boo)
An' laid out naked on the floor (Oh yeah)
We did it till we were un-concho
And you can't say that on television any more

[Chorus: Frank Zappa, George Duke, Napoleon Murphy Brock, Frank Zappa]
She had a snake for a pet and an amulet
And she was breeding a dwarf, but she wasn't done yet
She had gray-green skin, a doll with a pin
I told her she was alright, but I couldn't come in
(Hey, I couldn't come in then)

[Verse 2: Frank Zappa]
And so she wandered through the door-way
Just like a shadow from the tomb
She said her stereo was four-way
An' I would just love it in her room
Well, I was born to have adventure
So I just followed up the steps
Right past her fuming incense stencher
To where she hung her castanets
She stripped away her rancid poncho (Just like this)
An' laid out naked by the floor
We did it till we were un-concho
And it was useless any more
Now George, make her dance!

[Instrumental Outro]
[Keyboard Solo: George Duke]
[Guitar Solo: Frank Zappa]
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
Ah, wow
Ahh

[Spoken Word Outro]
