[Frank Zappa - Diseases of the Band lyrics]

Howdy, folks alright
Here's the deal: This is
Our last show here in London gee
It's gonna be tough got a few – a
Few of the boys are sick tonight
(cough, cough) but they're still gonna gIVE
YOU THEIR ALL i want to
Introduce you to the members of
The rocking teenage combo and
Tell you which ones are sick and
What they've got denny Walley
On slide and vocals, he has
He has an aluminum finger
And we're gonna have that removed a
Little bit later in the
Show this is Ike Willis ike has a now Ike
Ike is our, uh lead vocalist, our
Dynamic male vocalist, he's got a sore
Throat and all sorts of other
Things wrong with him
He'll never be able to get through
The show the only thing
He's got to take care of him is his knitted
Hat and of course, Tommy Mars
Who also has stomach flu
On keyboards eh, do you
Have any other diseases
Tommy? No? He's available
Okay ed Mann on percussion ed
Is still healthy except, and
He told me this backstage, except
For his mental health, which he
Hasn't been doin' but you have to
Expect these things in this
Kind of a group and Peter
Wolf on keyboards there's
There apparently is nothing wrong
With Peter yet he's got stomach flu too
You have stomach flu too? Ooh, my goodness
He has intestinal flu the keyboard disease
They're coming up here
The circle is closing in okay
Vince Colaiuta on drums
Now, as you can see from looking at Vince
There is absolutely nothing wrong with him
Malnutrition hey, c'mon i'm workin' on it
Arthur Barrow, our bass player, he's got a
He's having a lot of trouble
He's been very sick all
Day, missed the soundcheck and everything
But he's gonna try
He's gonna try really hard and of course
Sophia Warren on guitar
