Harry-as-a-Boy

Frank Zappa

HARRY! HARRY, is that YOU as a BOY?

Why, it MUST be! He's so
Charming and sweet and likeable!

HARRY-AS-A-BOY, c'mon over 'n say a few
Words to de nice peoples!

Hi, folks! Nice to be here!

I's sure dere be lotsa folks like to
Know what yo' plans arehow y'intend
T'be gwine about dis
Uncredibly serious bidniss
O' GROWIN' UP IN ERMERICA!

Well, I plan on making a few mistakes
Having my heart broken and so forth, using
All kinds of drugs
And turning gay as soon as
Possible in order to
Accelerate my rise to the 'top of the heap'

Ahh! Tremenjous, HARRY-AS-A-BOY
Simply tre- MENJOUS! You practicin' up fo
It wit anybody in po-ticlar now?

I can't afford to study with anyone yet
Since the bulk of my allowance goes for glue
And Grateful Dead tickets
But soon I hope to be on my knees in a
REAL HOMO BATH HOUSEmaybe when my
Folks go on vacation

Ain't you de clever one!
Tell us, HARRY-AS-A-BOY
Howdja recide upon dis heah life-style
Bein' DE ONE FO YOU?

It was pretty simple
Really i lost all desire for
Intercourse with females when they
Started carrying those briefcases and
Wearing suit's 'n ties

WHAT?

Let's face it: that would be like
Fucking a slightly more voluptuous version
Of somebody's father! I'm far too sensitive
For such a traumatic experience!

You means DE WOMENS'
LIBROMATION MOVENINT done
Created de uncontrollable urgement to
Play dingle dangle-dingle wit de personal
Requipment of yo own gender?

To a degreei meanlook
I'm not stupid! I know it's
All a thoroughly workable government-
Sponsored program to control
The Population Explosion
And, just like every other AMERICAN
I'm too concerned with MY OWN personal health
And well being to think of
Devoting any of MY precious time to
Something as boring as 'REPRODUCTION'!

HARRY, I used to think you
Were merely an OVER-
EDUCATED SHIT-HEAD, but now that
I finally have proof
It's going to give me GREAT PLEASURE to
Refer to you as an OVER-EDUCATED COCKSUCKER!

Well, to be honest with you
Dearest, I sort of gulp, gulp

: Where's the fairies on a string
HARRY? Huh? Riddle me this!

Easy there, white folks! I told y'all'd be
Get- tin' yo' fairies after while
'n y'know dat sort o' thing take a
Little time to woik up to
In yo' BROADWAY SITCHYATIUM!
MAMMYS step faw'd
'n hep de lil' cocksucker out!
