The Idiot Bastard Son: Did Zappa know about Bush fetus in the jar?

[Bonobo]

THE IDIOT BASTARD SON

The father's a nazi in congress today
The mother's a hooker somewhere in L.A.
The idiot bastard son

Abandoned to perish in back of a car
Kenny will stash him away in a jar
The idiot boy!
All the time he would spend at the church he'd attend...
Warming his pew
Kenny will feed him & ronnie will watch
The child will thrive & grow
And enter the world
Of liars & cheaters & people like you
Who smile & think you know
What this is about

You think you know everything... maybe so
The song we sing, do you know?
We're listening...
The idiot boy!

All the time he would spend all the colors he'd blend...
Where are they now?

1. Zappa was the fetus

2. This is why you shouldn't smoke so much.

3. another one:

"it's the middle of the night
and your mommy and your daddy are sleeping
sleeping
mom and dad are sleeping
sleeping in a jar
...the jar is under the bed"

(i think it was from uncle meat--i just remember the lyrics--)

4. Ummmmm ... No.

5. That album eerily predicted and exposed a lot of things.

Authoritarian violence, the "hippie" movement becoming just another trend to be imitated and mass produced, legacy leaders, suburbia and marriage exposed as a lie, distant hands-off methods of parenting, etc.

It remains my favorite album of the 60s, and far more innovative than many albums of that decade.

9. Zappa bit the hands that fed him

is what it exposed. At least he include "we" in the album's title. Great album though and one of his best, imo. In a time when special audio effects took weeks to create, Zappa created an aural masterpiece.

6. Shut up and play the guitar.

[WinkyDink]

7. I guess you missed the line "The child will thrive & grow"?

[eShirl]
