Frank Zappa - Psychedelic Music lyrics

Well, you see, at the time
Freak Out! came out, there was no such
Thing as psychedelic music and there
Was no such thing as Suzy
Creamcheese, or "Freak Out"
Or that wasn't the happening thing and the
Use of the word
"Freak Out" in Los Angeles, as
A colloquial localism, uh
Referred to and there’s an explanation in
The album, you know
Had this whole thing about people
Getting together and dancing and
Doing this big thing
And that's what the scene was in LA
And that's what the intent of
The title was to convey not a bad LSD trip
Or weirdness it’s just people, uh

For instance, in Pachuco slang do you
Know anything about Pachucos?
Pachucos, during, uh, the season when
They were really happening, uh
They're Mexican youths who wore a
Certain type of clothing that's
Where peggers came from, real
Tight at the ankles, and
Then gradually getting bigger here, pleated
Fronts on the pants, one-button
Rolled pink flannel coats, key chains
Now, zoot suit guys
Alright? Uh, they have a
Peculiar sort of slang, which is
Based on, uh, Spanish, but
Words change in, uh
Pronunciation from area to area one
A Spanish ghetto in
One city will say a word one way
And, uh, in another state
The same ghetto is gonna say it
A different way the word means
Basically the same thing, but the context in
Which it use, is used may change, like, uh
There's an expression that
Means "gee whiz, " in one
Place it may be "Híjola, "
In another place it may be
"Hijuela" And language is
Not really adequate for communicating
Ideas, you know
When you have to the only way
You're really gonna be able to get
Ideas across is when people can
Think 'em to each other words
Really get in the way, so you get hung up
In the packaging expressions

I was offended when, uh, Capitol put out
An album that had a glossary of
Uh terms in there that
Described "Freak Out" as a bad LSD trip cuz I
Thought people would start associating
Our album with, uh
That and then and they did what can you do?
