Lyrics Frank Zappa

Frank Zappa

Flakes

Flakes! Flakes

Flakes, flakes

They don't do no good

They never be workin

When they oughta should

They waste your time

There wastin mine

California got the most of them

Boy they got a host of them

R: Swear to god they get the most

At every business on the coast

Swear to god they get the most

At every business on the coast

They got the flakes

Flakes! Flakes!

They can't fix yer brakes

You ask them "Where's my motor?"

Well it was eaten snakes

You can stab an shoot an spit

But they wont be fixin it

There lyin and lazy

They can be drivin you crazy

R: Swear to god they get the most...

Take it away bob!!!

I asked as nice as I could

If my job would

Somehow be finished by friday

Well the whole damn weekend

Em

Came and went Frankie

An they didn't do nothing

But they charged me double for sunday

You know no matter what you do

They gonna cheat an rob you

Tehn they'll send you a bill

That'll get you senses reeling

And if you do not pay

They got computer collectors

That'll get you so crazy

Til you head'll go through the ceiling

Yes it will

I'm a moron an this is my wife

She frosting a cake with a paper knife

All what we got here's American make

It's a little bit cheesey

But its nicely displayed

Well we don't gez excited when it

Crumbles and breaks

We just get on the phone and call some flakes

They rush on over and break it some more

And we are so dumb there lining up at our door

Well the toilet went crazy

Yesterday afternoon

The plumber he says never flush a tampoon

This great info cost me half a weeks pay

And the toilet blew up

Later on the next day

Blew up the next day

E D E D E D etc..

We are million an millions

Were coming to get you

Were protected by unions

So don't let it upset you

Cant escape the conclusion

Its probably god's will

That civilization

Will gring to a standstill

And we are the people

Who will make it all happen

Whilw yer children is sleepin

yer puppy is crappin

You might call us flakes

Or something else you might coin us

But we know you're so greedy

That you'll probably join us

Were coming to get you, were

Coming to get you
