Lyrics Frank Zappa – He’s Watching Us

It’s him, he’s watching us!
Mark
You think he heard us?
Ian
I’ve been in the band for years, and . . . you can bet that he hears everything
Jeff
Let’s go over and pretend to be nice to him
Howard
Let’s go over and pretend we don’t know he’s watching
Mark
And ripping off all our good material
Howard
Hi, man
Ian
Hi, Frank
Mark
Hi, man
Jeff
Hi, Frank
Aynsley
Hi, man
George
Hi, Frank
Mark
Well, that’s a great new comic song you wrote, that one about the penis and everything, I was laughing a lot while I was learning it
Howard

Yeah, Frank, uh, it was a little hard to get into it first, but, uh, once we got the drift . . .
Jeff
That’s a real great part you got in there for the chorus when they go ran-tan-toon ran-ta-tan, while I steal the room and everything, I don’t mind he’s ripping it off so long I get paid . . .
Mark
Me too, I won’t even care ’bout the part where it goes «what can I say about this elixir?» so long as me and Howard and Jeff get credit for special material, there’s some bad ground acid . . . Aynsley, you can take it with a grain of salt, ha ha ha . . .
Aynsley
I don’t mean to upset you, lads . . . I don’t mean to upset you, lads, but the reason my retorts were so snappy is because he’s making me do this, I should imagine he’s making you do yours too, isn’t he?
Howard
Get out of here, you creep, you used to live in his house!
Aynsley
See you later, lads
