I'm Gonna Booglarize You Baby

Captain Beefheart · Other Songs - Captain Beefheart

The moon was a drip on a dark hood

'N' they were drivin' around 'n' around

Vital Willy tol' Weepin' Milly

I'm gonna booglarize you baby

I'm gonna booglarize you baby



If I can find ah place

T' park my machine out ah town

Milly tol' Willy come on over t'my house

I'll slow your machine right down

'Cause listen Vitals gives me the Willies



Drivin' around 'n' around, drivin' around 'n' around

If you keep beatin' around the bush

You'll lose your push

If you keep beatin' around the bush

You'll lose your push



The moon was ah drip on ah dark hood

The moon was ah drip on ah dark hood

'N' they were drivin' around 'n' around



Tush tush

Bogota boogie

Tush tush

Bogota boogie around



There ain't no place t' stop around

Bogota boogie said Weepin' Milly

Now Willy come over t' my place

'N' I'll slow you right down

You lose your push tush

When you beat around the bush



If you act reserved

I know somebody payin' for your parkin' place

You gotta take your space

Tush tush, you lose your push



When you beat around

When you beat around

When you beat around the bush

Bogota boogie, bogota boogie



I'm gonna booglarize you baby

I'm gonna booglarize you baby

I'm gonna booglarize you baby

I'm Gonna Booglarize You Baby
