Frank Zappa
Camarillo Brillo
[Verse 1]
She had that Camarillo brillo
Flamin' out along her head
I mean her Mendocino bean-o
By where some bugs had made it red

[Verse 2]
She ruled the Toads of the Short Forest
And every newt in Idaho
And every cricket who had chorused
By the bush in Buffalo

[Hook]
She said she was a Magic Mama
And she could throw a mean Tarot
And carried on without a comma
That she was someone I should know

[Chorus]
She had a snake for a pet and an amulet
And she was breeding a dwarf but she wasn't done yet
She had gray-green skin, a doll with a pin
I told her she was awright but I couldn't come in
(I couldn't come in right then...)

[Post-Chorus]
And so she wandered through the door-way
Just like a shadow from the tomb
She said her stereo was four-way
And I'd just love it in her room
[Verse 3]
Well, I was born to have adventure
So I just followed up the steps
Right past her fuming incense stencher
To where she hung her castanets

[Verse 4]
She stripped away her rancid poncho
And laid out naked by the door
We did it till we were un-concho
And it was useless any more

[Chorus]
She had a snake for a pet and an amulet
And she was breeding a dwarf but she wasn't done yet
She had gray-green skin, a doll with a pin
I told her she was awright but I couldn't come in
(Actually, I was very busy then)

[Post-Chorus]
And so she wandered through the door-way
Just like a shadow from the tomb
She said her stereo was four-way
And I'd just love it in her room

[Verse 3]
Well, I was born to have adventure
So I just followed up the steps
Right past her fuming incense stencher
To where she hung her castanets
[Hook]
She said she was a Magic Mama
And she could throw a mean Tarot
And carried on without a comma
That she was someone I should know

[Spoken Outro]
Is that a real poncho?
I mean is that a Mexican poncho or is that a Sears poncho?
Hmmm, no foolin'...
