Frank Zappa & The Mothers Of Invention Cheepnis Lyrics

I love monster movies, I simply adore monster movies, and the cheaper they are, the better they are. and cheepnis in the case of a monster movie has nothing to do with the budget of the film, al
H it helps. but true cheepnis is exemplified by visible nylon strings attached to the jaw of a giant spider. Ill tell you, a good one that I saw one time, I think the name of the film was "
Onquered the world (yeah!) and the... did you ever see that one? the monster looks sort of like an inverted ice-cream corn with teeth around the bottom. it looks like a, like a teepee or a
Of a rounded off pup-tent affair. and ah, its got fangs on the base of it, I dont know why but its a very threatening sight. and then hes got a frown and, you know, ugly mouth and everythin

Just a little bit as the guy is goin: kch! kch! now thats cheepnis.

Right. and this is cheepnis here: one two three four...

I ate a hot dog
It tasted real good
Then I watched a movie
From hollywood

(repeat)

Little miss m___ett on a squat by me
Took a turn around, I said: can yall see?
The little strings on the giant spider?
The zipper from the black lagoon?
The vents by the tanks where the bubbles go up?
(and the flaps on the side of the moon)

The jelly & paint on the 40 watt bulb
They use when the slime droozle off
The rumples & the wrinkles in the cardboard rock
And the canvas of the cave is too soft

The suits & the hats & the ties too wide
And too short for the scientist man
The chemistry lady with the roll-away mind
And the monster just ate j__an

Ladies and gentlemen,
The monster,
Which the peasants in this area call frunobulax
(apparently a very large poodle dog)
Has just been seen approaching the power plant
Bullets cant stop it
Rockets cant stop it
We may have to use nuclear force!

Here comes that poodle dog!
Big as a blimp with a rhinestone collar
Snappin off the trees
Like they was bonsaId ornaments on a
Dry-wobble landscape
Keep it away! dont let the poodle bite me!
We cant let it reproduce! oh!
Somebody get out the pants!

The national guard has formed up at the base
Of the mountain
And is attempting to lure the enormous poodle
Towards the cave
Where they hope to destroy it with napalm
A thousand of the troopers are now lined up
And are calling to the monster...
Here fido
Here fido
Here fido

Got a great big slimey thing
Got a great big heavy thing
Got a great big poodle thing
Got a great big hairy thing

(repeat)

Cmon! everybody! lets go!
Get the distilled water! get the canned goods!
Get the toilet paper! you know we need it!

Go to da shelter
My baby, my baby,
Go to da shelter
Go to da shelter

(repeat)

Little miss m___ett on a squat by me,
Can ya see the little string danglin down
Makes the legs go wabble an the mouth flop shut
An the horrible eye, horrible eye, horrible eye
Go rollin around
Can ysee it all
Can ysee it from here
Can ylaugh till yer weak on yer knees
If you cant, Im sorry 'cause thats
All I wanna know
I need a little more cheepnis please
Baby, Im sorry 'cause its all I wanna know
I need a little more cheepnis please
Baby, Im sorry 'cause its all I wanna know
I need a little more cheepnis please
