Act I
SCENE FOUR
CREW SLUT
(Backstage at the local Armory, MARY, in her little white dress, is wiping the remnants of her performance off the side of her mouth as LARRY (the guy from the garage who quit the band in order to make an honest living) zips up the front of his stinking boiler suit and sings to the same teen-age girls who were stomping and clapping a little while ago, as they kneel with their little pink mouths open near the crew bus, hoping to save the price of admission by performing acts of Hooverism on
the jolly lads who set up the P. A. System.)
LARRY:
Hey Hey Hey all you girls in these industrial towns

ROAD CREW CHORUS:

LARRY:
Add water makes its own sauce[1]
ROAD CREW CHORUS:

LARRY:
So you don't forget, call before midnite tonite
The boys in the crew

LARRY:
You never to get move around, zou never go nowhere

You always wondered what it's like to go from place to place
So, darlin', take a little ride on the mixer's face
ROAD CREW CHORUS:

ROAD CREW CHORUS:

LARRY:

ROAD CREW CHORUS:
CREW SLUT
LARRY:

The boys in the crew are only waiting for you
(At this point, the road crew, as all road crews must from time to time, borrow some of the big rock group's equipment and have a blues jam session, indicating to the kneeling maidens that they are endowed with a great deal of raw talent, as well as massive meat. Obviously impressed with LARRY'S ability to suck so hard on his harmonica that screeching little noises come out of it, MARY kneels again and reaches upward in gestures of supplication, listening intently as LARRY continues to sing...)
LARRY:
Well you been to Alabama, girl 'n' Georgia too
'N' all the boys in the crew is bein' good to you
I know yer sayin' to yourself "This is the way to go"
'Cause when you need a little extra, they will give you some mo'
ROAD CREW CHORUS:
`Cause you're the CREW SLUT
