Lyrics Frank Zappa

Frank Zappa

Plastic People

Ladies and gentlemen

The president of the united states!

"Fella Americans, doot, doot, doot..."

He's been sick!--doot! doot!

And I think his wife is gonna bring him

Some chicken soap

Plastic people!

Oh, baby, now you're such a drag

I know it's hard to defend an unpopular policy

Every once in a while

Plastic people!

Oh, baby, now you're such a drag

And there's this guy from the cia he's creepin'

Around laurel canyon

A fine little girl she waits for me

She's as plastic as she can be

She paints her face with plastic goo

And wrecks her hair with some shampoo

Plastic people

Oh, baby, now you're such a drag

"I dunno, sometimes I just get tired

Of ya honey, it's...ah..your

Hair spray, or something..."

Plastic people

Oh, baby, now you're such a drag

"I hear the sound of marching feet...

Down sunset boulevard to crescent heights

And there...at pandora's box...

We are confronted with...a vast

Quantity of, plastic people..."

Take a day and walk around

Watch the nazi's run your town

Then go home and check yourself

You think we're singing

'Bout someone else

But you're plastic people

Oh, baby, now

You're such a drag

Me see a neon moon above

I searched for years I found no love

I'm sure that love will never be

A product of plasticity

A product of plasticity

Plastic, plastic people, pla-ha-ha-ha

Ha-plastic, you are, your foot, your hair

Your nose, your arms--you suck--you love

You are, your being is, you're plastic--blah

Blah, blah, blah plastic peoples

A prune is not a vegetable

Cabbage is a vegetable; makes it o.k.

Plastic people, plastic people

You dream about, you think about, you eat

You are, ooo-hoo-hoo...

Purple prancing--plastic people-

Pee-pee-pee-pee-pee-peep!
