With my hair gassed back
Pair a khaki pants
With my shoe shined black
I got a little lady . . .
And she walks that street
Tellin' all the boys
That she can't be beat
She can't be beat
She can't be beat
She's so sweet
She knows she can't be beat
She can't be beat
She can't be beat
She's so sweet
She knows she can't be beat
Twenny dollah bill
(I can set you straight)
Meet me on the corner boy an don't be late
Man in a suit
With a bow-tie neck
Tryna buy some pussy
With a third party check
A third party check, a third party check
He's tryna buy some pussy
With a third party check
A third party check, a third party check
He's tryna buy some pussy
With a third party checks
Standin' onna porch of the Lido Hotel
Floozies in the lobby love the way I sell:
HOT MEAT . . .
HOT RATS . . .
HOT CATS . . .
HOT ZITS
HOT MEAT . . .
HOT FEET . . .
HOT RATS . . .
HOT CATS
Willie The Pimp
Frank Zappa's 'Willie The Pimp' stands as a sharp, satirical piece from the 1991 compilation 'You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore Vol. 4.' The track exemplifies Zappa's signature blend of rock, jazz, and theatrical absurdity, utilizing a complex arrangement to mock the pretensions of the entertainment industry. Through a narrative driven by witty lyrics and a distinctive vocal performance, the song critiques the hypocrisy of figures who claim moral superiority while engaging in exploitative behavior. It reflects Zappa's lifelong commitment to social commentary, delivered with his characteristic musical virtuosity and irreverent humor. The recording captures the energy of his later years, showcasing a matured yet unapologetic artistic voice that continues to resonate within the progressive rock and avant-garde genres.
