Subject: CRD: Frank Zappa, "Sofa #2"

Music by Frank Zappa (1940-1993)

This is quite an attractive piece of music.  It could be commercial, with
a few more margaritas and the right company.

However, I digress.

This is my own favorite song of FZ's to sing.  Beautiful melody
(also very common as an instrumental) and bilingual lyrics (they come in
German also).

I am the heaven, I am the water
I am the dirt beneath your rollers
I am your secret smut & lost netal money
Down your cracks

I am your cracks and crannies

I am the clouds, I am embroidered
I am the author of all tucks an damask piping
I am the chrome dinette, I am the chrome dinette
I am eggs of all persuasions

I am all days and nights

I am here
and you are my sofa
