[Frank Zappa - A Bunch Of Adventures lyrics]
From the point that Jeff
Simmons quit the group
We had a bunch of adventures trying
To find somebody to replace him non only
For the bass parts in the music
But to play the role that
He was supposed to play
In the film, which is a
Pretty large part and, uh
Our first candidate for the
Role was Wilfrid Brambell, who
Played the grandfather in A Hard
Day's Night so Wilfrid came
Over, tried out for the
Part, everything was set, he rehearsed with
Us for about a week
And then one day came to the studio here
And, completely freaked out, and said that
He couldn't handle it anymore so
We went into the dressing room and sat around
With the guys in the band and
Tried to figure out what we're gonna
Do 'bout replacing the replacement
And the first person that walked
Through the door was
Martin Lickert, who happened to be
Ringo's driver, and, uh, everybody
Just turned and look at him and we went
"You!"
