Frank Zappa - Holding the Group Back lyrics

[Frank Zappa - Holding the Group Back lyrics]

Then, from out of the corner from
The stage, comes Roy Ralph Estrada
Perturbed at the present situation
Within the Mothers

Domino, Domino, Domino Biz-bo-OH
Domino Biz-bo-OH, Amen, Domino
Biz-bo, Hallelujah, eh
Et cum spiritu tuo
Ian, I don't think I qualify for the Mothers
They're making up their lines
As they go along, isn't it thrilling?
Why, Roy?
Because I don't think I'm qualified i think
I think I'm holding the group
Back because I'm a
MEXICAN and also because I
Don't play bass good
I don't care how you can play bass but
We have NO MEXICANS in this group
And I wanna join your group no Mexicans!
I can sing opera, I have already
Quit, I cut my hair
I got all my shit together here i can do it
I don't care how you look
You gotta be able to cut the part
I can sing please please, Ian
Give me a CHANCE
I don't believe you can sing
Ah, PLEASE! Ah, Ian, please
Hear my PLEA! PLEASE, ian! ple-e-e-ease!
I can do it, give me
A CHANCE! PLEASE! Please
IAN! BWAH-AH-AH-AH! Please! Okay Mexican
Please? I Okay Mexican
Okay sing this note
You think everything gonna be alright

Okay you passed the first part of
Your audition now you gotta sing
Mi, mi, mi, mi
