[00:00.000] 作词 : Zappa [00:01.13][Central Scrutinizer & Joe] We take you now, to a garage, in Canoga Park... [00:08.32](It makes its own sauce...) [00:10.14] [00:11.76][Joe] It wasn't very large [00:14.15]There was just enough room to cram the drums [00:16.80]In the corner over by the Dodge [00:19.42]It was a fifty-four [00:20.83]With a mashed up door [00:22.30]And a cheesy little amp [00:24.85]With a sign on the front said "Fender Champ" [00:27.49]And a second hand guitar [00:30.25]It was a Stratocaster with a whammy bar [00:33.41] [00:38.35][Larry] We could jam in Joe's Garage [00:41.04]His mama was screamin' [00:42.61]His dad was mad [00:44.05]We was playin' the same old song [00:46.65]In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would [00:49.61]Play it all night long [00:52.00]It was all we knew, 'n' easy too [00:54.71]So we wouldn't get it wrong [00:57.49]All we did was bend the string like... [01:00.45] [01:05.23]Hey! [01:05.90]Down in Joe's Garage [01:08.30]We didn't have no dope or LSD [01:10.94]But a coupla quarts'a beer [01:13.71]Would fix it so the intonation [01:16.61]Would not offend your ear [01:19.23]And the same old chords goin' over 'n' over [01:22.05]Became a symphony [01:24.54]We would play it again 'n' again 'n' again [01:27.42]Cause it sounded good to me [01:30.39]One more time! [01:32.83] [01:38.27]We could jam in Joe's Garage [01:40.83]His mama was screaming [01:42.37]"Turn it down!" [01:43.89]We was playing' the same old song [01:46.56]In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would [01:49.39]Play it all night long [01:52.00]It was all we knew, and easy too [01:54.50]So we wouldn't get it wrong [01:57.38]Even if you played it on the saxophone [02:00.30] [02:10.51]We thought we was pretty good [02:13.61]We talked about keepin' the band together [02:16.27]'N' we figured that we should [02:18.98]Cause about this time we was gettin' the eye [02:21.77]From the girls in the neighborhood [02:24.44]They'd all come over 'n' dance around, like… [02:27.32] [02:32.52]So we picked out a stupid name [02:35.20]Had some cards printed up for a couple 'a bucks [02:38.01]'N' we was on our way to fame [02:40.71]Got matching suits 'N' Beatle Boots [02:43.42]'N' a sign on the back of the car [02:46.16]'N' we was ready to work in a Go-Go bar [02:48.84] [02:49.21]One, two, three, four [02:51.85]Let's see if you got some more! [02:54.27] [02:59.77][Larry & Joe] People seemed to like our song [03:02.59]They got up 'n' danced 'n' made a lotta noise [03:05.21]An' it wasn't 'fore very long [03:08.03]A guy from a company we can't name [03:10.59]Said we ought'a take his pen [03:13.37]'N' sign on the line for a real good time [03:16.11]But he didn't tell us when [03:18.71]These "good times" would be somethin' [03:21.10]That was really happenin' [03:24.20]So the band broke up [03:26.88]An' it looks like [03:29.38]We will never play again [03:32.80]Guess you only get one chance in life [03:35.90]To play a song that goes like... [03:38.02] [03:43.22][Mrs. Borg] Turn it down! [03:48.58]Turn it DOWN! [03:51.65]I have children sleeping here... [03:55.92]Don't you boys know any nice songs?

[05:46.97]That was Joe's first confrontation with "The Law"... [05:53.12]Naturally, we were easy on him [05:56.99]One of our friendly counsellors gave him a donut [06:02.33]And told him to stick closer [06:05.74]To church-oriented social activities...
