Mudd Club

(albüm: Thing-Fish - 1984)

And here we are
At the Mudd Club, y'all
I hope you enjoy yourself
'Cause the show's about to begin...

Hey, they're really dancing
They're on auto-destruct
On the floor
On the pipe
Bouncing off-a the wall

Hey, the people here are really
Tearing it up
On the side
In the back
By the front of the stage

They ain't really crazy
You can take it from me
I should know
'Cause I go
Every time I'm in town

If you never tried it
Lemme straighten you out
It's the best
Kinda place
To unfasten yerself

Mudd Club!

All the way downtown!

Mudd Club!

They ain't messing around!

Mudd Club!

Just turn to the left 'n look around
Because it's there SOMEWHERE!

If you ain't found it
Better hurry up!
The folks down there's on
AUTO-DESTRUCT
And so can YOU be, TOO!
(De fact o' de matter
It's MADE FOR YOU!)

Try it on a Saturday
'Bout four o'clock in the morning
Or even a Monday
At midnight
When there's just a few
Of them severely ignint white folks
Doing the Peppermint Twist (for real)

In a black sack dress
(With nine-inch heels)
And then a guy
With a BLUE MOHAWK come in
In Serious Leather...

(And all the rest
Of whom
For which
To when-so-never
Of partially indeterminate
Biochemical degradation

SEEK 'THE PATH'
To the sudsy yellow nozzle
Of their
Foaming nocturnal
Parametric-digital
Whole-wheat/inter-faith
Geo-thermal
Terpsichorean Ejectamenta)

In Serious Leather!
In Serious Chains!

'N den dey works de wall!
Dey works de floor!
Dey works de pipe!
'N dey works de wall SOME MORE!

In Serious Leather!
Serious Chains!
Serious Clothing!

From when they come downtown
From the ruins of Studio '54
To Twist 'n Frugg
In an arrogant gesture to
THE BEST
Of what de 20th Century have to offer
Including a generous supply
Of 'IGNINT McNUGGET'!

QUENTIN ROBERT DE NAMELAND
Down there right now
With a whole face-full of 'IGNINT McNUGGET'
Looking for a virgin with nice breath!

Why, maybe it's YOU!

And YOU don't even know it!

Hey, they're really dancing

Dey REALLY dancing...

They're on auto-destruct
On the floor
On the pipe
Bouncing off-a the wall

Right offa dat wall, too!

Hey, the people here are really
Tearing it up

Dey tearing it off!

On the side
In the back
By the front of the stage

Took de boy's Mohawk off!

They ain't really crazy
You can take it from me

Uh-OH! I smells trubba!

I should know
'Cause I go
Every time I'm in town

CHRISTIANS coming up!

If you never tried it
Lemme straighten you out

Lemme straighten you out, now...

It's the best
Kinda place
To un-fasten yerself
While you...

Get off dat wall now...
