Subject: CRD: Frank Zappa, «Sofa #2»
Music by Frank Zappa (1940-1993)
This is quite an attractive piece of music. It could be commercial, with
a few more margaritas and the right company.
However, I digress.
This is my own favorite song of FZ’s to sing. Beautiful melody
(also very common as an instrumental) and bilingual lyrics (they come in
German also).

I am the heaven, I am the water
I am the dirt beneath your rollers
I am your secret smut & lost netal money
Down your cracks
I am your cracks and crannies
I am the clouds, I am embroidered
I am the author of all tucks an damask piping
I am the chrome dinette, I am the chrome dinette
I am eggs of all persuasions
I am all days and nights
I am here
and you are my sofa
