JCB & Kansas On The Bus #2
Frank Zappa · You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore vol 5 [1992]
That'll do you.
My names Kansas and I'm from Lyons.
The Lyons lions.
L.Y.O.N.S.
You got any smokes?
Y'damn right. Huh?
What kind of smokes?
Cigarettes.
Wanna a Chester booger?
What else did you think I meant,
I got some cigars up there too, brother.
No, I jes, Frank wanted to know if you had any Winstons.
Anybody have any Winstons?
No, I don't.
Gimme a Chesterfield.
Does Motor have any more Winstons,
I know he just bought a carton...
I'll pass man.
Boy, I'm havin' another one.
You can't beat another Chesterfield, like the 48 others.
After 48 others.
Suck em right up.
Euclid, get up.
Let him sleep.
Fuck him, all he does is sleep.
Dub dab dab doo da down
Dabbe doo dee.
Put that pistol down, babe.
Put that pistol down
Don't take your guns to town, Bill
