Probably wondering why i m here

Its been a long time since i heard this and when i heard that bit it made me really laugh! Back when Top 40 bubblegam pop AM radio ruled being into Zappa who got no airplay was indeed kewl!

Ironic that Donald Trump pop-ups are appearing during music that had a view of Democracy in real lives It's not that I don't like Syd I do.

Syd was a similar style but wasn't this good. It's funny, but the Kazoo was used because the label wouldn't pay for a full orchestra. Oh cool, I didn't know that. The album I know they did was called Brown Black and Blue. This is one of those songs that I frequently get stuck in my head and sing in the middle of the work day. Just as much as you wonder If I mean just what I say Yeah!

That's just how much I question The social games you play. Looove this song and album If you lived in the 50's and early 60's you will get this song It's all about greasers and the phoney people Cars, big hair and fights That's what the greaser days were all about..

Hiromasa Tanaka I'm just wondering what was you're doctoral dissertationabout? Zappa re-released his catalog in the mids when CD's were taking over as the dominant format, and this album was one of the first CD's I bought.

Always loved the xylophone banging away in the right channel. Thing is, who played it? Not sure the person is even credited Any idea? Hey Prizewinner, since reading your post a few days ago I have been trying to find out. The xylophone features very prominently on Disc One of Freak Out, and Wikipedia has a good listing of session players, but nobody is actually credited with playing the xylophone! You are right, it is very prominent and whoever played it should get credited.

I was entertaining the idea that it was maybe Zappa himself Just guessing. There must be some footage about that might give a clue if it was anyone else in the band at that time.

Seems like a weird omission. This is one of my favourite songs off the album I like his doo-wop pastiches a lot too. I heard "Cruising With Ruben I wish he'd done more like that! It feels very real to me. It reminds me a hell of a lot of the Bonzo Dog Band I think they Zappa and Vivian Stanshall had a lot in common Yeah apparently yelling 'Caravan' as a song request was the s equivalent to yelling 'Free Bird' as a song request like we do today.

That's just how much I question The corny things you do. You paint your face and then you chase To meet the gang where the action is Stomp all night And drink your fizz Roll your car and say "Gee whiz!

Just as much as you wonder If I mean just what I say Yeah! That's just how much I question The social games you play. You told your Mom you're stoked on Tom And went for a cruise in Freddie's car Tommy's asking Where you are You boogied all night in a cheesy bar Plastic boots and plastic hat And you think you know where it's at? You're probably wondering Why I'm here Not that it makes a heck of a lot of a difference to ya. Original Albums. Thus, this song is mocking certain social movements in the early 60s.

That's just how much I marvel At the lameness on your face You rise each day the same old way And join your friends out on the street Spray your hair And think you're neat I think your life is incomplete But maybe that's not for me to say They only pay me here to play I wanna hear Caravan with a drum solo You're probably wondering Why I'm here And so am I So am I Just as much as you wonder 'Bout me starin' back at you Yeah!

That's just how much I question The corny things you do You paint your face and then you chase To meet the gang where the action is Stomp all night And drink your fizz Roll your car and say "Gee whiz!
