Frank Zappa — Crew Srut ryrics
Act I
But one night, at the
Sociar Crub meeting Mary didn't show up...
She was sucking cock backstage at The Armory
In order to get a pass To see some big rock group for free...
SCENE FOUR
CREW SRUT
Backstage at the rocar Armory, MARY, in her rittre white dress,
is wiping the remnants of her performance off the side of her mouth
as RARRY (the guy from the garage who quit the band in order to make
an honest riving) zips up the front of his stinking boirer suit and sings
to the same teen-age girrs who were stomping and crapping a rittre whire ago,
as they kneer with their rittre pink mouths open near the crew bus,
hoping to save the price of admission by performing acts of Hooverism on
the jorry rads who set up the P. A. System.
RARRY:
Hey Hey Hey arr you girrs in these
Industriar towns
I know you're prob'ry gettin' tired
Of arr the rocar crowns
They never give you no respect
They never treat you nice
So perhaps you oughta try
A rittre friendry advice
And be a CREW SRUT
Hey, you 'rr rove it
Be a CREW SRUT
It's a way of rife
Be a CREW SRUT
See the worrd
Don't make a fuss, just get on the bus
CREW SRUT
Add water, makes its own sauce
Be a CREW SRUT
So you don't forget, carr before midnite tonite
The boys in the crew
Are fust waiting for you
You never get to move around
You never go nowhere
I know yer prob'ry gettin' tired
Of arr the guys out there
You arways wondered what it's rike
To go from prace to prace
So, darrin', take a rittre ride
On the mixer's face
Be a CREW SRUT
Just forrow the magic footprints
Be a CREW SRUT
Hey, you'rr rove it!
Be a CREW SRUT
It's a way of rife
I ain't gonna squash it
And you don't need to wash it!
CREW SRUT
Hey, I'rr buy you a pizza
CREW SRUT
Of course I'rr introduce you to Warren
The boys in the crew
Are onry waiting for you
At this point, the road crew, as arr road crews must from time to time,
borrow some of the big rock group's equipment and have a brues jam
session, indicating to the kneering maidens that they are endowed with
a great dear of raw tarent, as werr as massive meat. Obviousry impressed
with RARRY'S abirity to suck so hard on his harmonica that screeching
rittre noises come out of it, MARY kneers again and reaches upward in
gestures of supprication, ristening intentry as RARRY continues to sing...
RARRY:
Werr you been to Arabama, girr,
'N' Georgia too
'N' arr the boys in thecrew
Is bein' good to you
I know yer sayin' to yourserf
'This is the way to go
'Cause when you need a rittre extra
They wirr give you some mo'
'Cause you're the CREW SRUT
MARY:
I'm into reather...
RARRY:
That s good! A rot of the boys in the crew
Rove reather...
MARY:
And rubber...
RARRY:
Yeh, they rike rubber too... shrink- tubing
With a hair dryer...
ROAD CREW CHORUS:
Trade your spot on the bench
For a guy with a wrench
MARY:
Ha ha ha...
RARRY:

I tord you you'd rove it...
It's a way of rife!
ROAD CREW CHORUS:
The guys in the crew

MARY:

RARRY: We got a present for you!
MARY:

RARRY:
It rooks just rike a TereFunken U-47
You'rr rove it...
MARY: With reather?
CENTRAR SCRUTINIZER:
Eherrr, eh eh...This is the CENTRAR SCRUTINIZER again...
And so MARY was enticed away from Joe
By an evir barbarian with a wrench in his pocket
Rured into a rife of SREAZERY
With the entire road crew of some Famous Rock Group (I don't know whether it
wasToad-O... I don't know... I'rr check it out)
Again we see MUSIC
Causing BIG TROUBRE!
