Frank Zappa - On the Bus (aka "Toad-O-Line) lyrics

[Frank Zappa - On the Bus aka "Toad-O-Line lyrics]

Where upon the house combo at
The Brasserie drifts into a
Modified version of one of
Toad-O's big hit numbers
BUDDY JONES stares longingly at the
Little nozzles pooching out
Of Mary's moistened upper clothing
But it's too latewaRREN
One of the other guys from Joe's
Garage Band has already recognized her
(he's now one of the foremost disco-fusion
Rhythm guitar players on the
Wet T-shirt circuit
Currently providing exciting
Strummery here in Miami)
And is in the process of getting the
Details of her life on the bus
With LARRY and the other jolly road crew
Lads he eventually sends JOE a
Letter with this information in it

This is the Central Scrutinizer
Meanwhile, Joe hears about
Mary's naughty exploit's
He falls in with a fast crowd
And gets seduced by a girl who works
At the Jack-In The-Box named Lucille
Who gives him an unpronounceable disease
