Lyrics Frank Zappa

Frank Zappa

Tryin' to Grow a Chin

Hey! I'm only fourteen

Sickly 'n' thin

Tried all of my life

Just to grow me a chin

It popped out once

But my dad pushed it in

Why did he hurt me?

He's my next of kin...

He's a mex-i-kin

I'm lonely 'n' green

Too small for my shirt

If Simmons was here

I could feature my hurt

Scared of the future

Hope I don't grow

I know nobody likes me

'Cause everywhere I go

They say NO

They say NO

They say NO

Now I'm older

Got a place in the town, babe

Got a chin on my shoulder

'N' it keeps growing down 'n' down 'n' down

I'm horny 'n' lonely

'N' I wish I was dead

Why am I livin'?

I wanna be dead instead

That's right, I said

I wanna be dead instead

Now dig this:

I wanna be dead

In bed

Please kill me

'Cause that would thrill me

I wanna be dead

In bed

Please kill me

'Cause that would thrill me

(etc, repeat)
