Frank Zappa - Wind Up Workin' In A Gas Station Lyrics
This here song might offend you some
If it does, it's because you're dumb
That's the way it is where I come from
If you've been there too, let me see your thumb
Let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
(LET ME SEE YOUR THUMB)
Well, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see you're wrong
(Let me see your thumb)
(LET ME SEE YOUR THUMB)
Let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb!
(Let me see your thumb)
(LET ME SEE YOUR THUMB)
Oh, let me see you're wrong
(Ah, let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(I GOT TO SEE YOUR THUMB, BABY)
(Ah, let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(OH, I WANT TO SEE THE THUMB)
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
(I WANNA SEE YOUR THUMB, BABY)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb . . .
FZ: Now, actually, ladies & gentlemen, really, this won't hurt at all, real live, make believe, audience participation in Sydney, Australia. Now we've been here for the last two concerts in this hall, and if there's one thing I noticed, that it seems to be a general air of tension that purveys the people who are intimidated by this particular building. For some strange reason they just don't really wanna get into it when somebody says, "Get your hands together," or participate one way or another. It's shameful, it's positively shameful, this is the 20th Century! But look, this won't hurt at all, all you gotta do is stick up your thumb. You don't have to sing, you don't have to CLAP. Stick up your thumb. Isn't that stupid? Try it one time.
(Awright! Awright! Awright! . . . Aw-RIGHT!)
Let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Let me see you're wrong!
(Let me see your thumb)
Let me see you're wrong
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see you're wrong
(Let me see your thumb)
Ah, let me see your thumb . . .
FZ: Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, you people are really good at showing us your thumb. Let's move on up the evolutionary ladder. Now, show us your tongue!
Let me see your tongue
(Let me see your tongue, uh)
Let me see your tongue
FZ: This only happens one time.
(Let me see your tongue!)
Let me see your tongue
(Let me see your tongue)
Ah, let me see your . . .
(Ah, let me see your tongue)
Ah, let me see your tongue
(Let me see your tongue)
Let me see your tongue
(Let me see your tongue)
FZ: Well, alright, if you don't wanna have things coming out of your mouth, we'll reach all the way to the bottom of the barrel and go on with the song, because actually this is completely irrelevant to what the subject matter is.
Show me your thumb if you're really dumb
Show me your thumb if you're really dumb
Show me your thumb if you're really dumb
Show me your thumb if you're dumb
Hey now, better make a decision
Be a moron and keep your position
You oughta know now all your education
Won't help you no-how, you're gonna . . .
