Lyrics
Mark Volman: Hello?!
FZ: Welcome to Carnegie Hall, ladies and gentlemen.
I hate to ask you this, but if you could just be patient for a couple o’minutes while we tune up the synthesizers, it’ll sound better.
(Ay!!)
FZ: It says "Uncle Meat"!
(He…)
FZ: Thank you for this.
Ready?
Allright. Contrary to the way we normally run our program, can you put a little more of my microphone on this monitor, please?
(Oah! Tuck, tuck!)
(Tuck, tuck!)
FZ: Hello! Woah! Ordinarily, when we start off a show, we start off with something real zippy and snazzy so that you get right into it, you know?
Mark Volman: Three Dog Night!
FZ: But, I think this evening — because it is such an auspicious occasion: The Desecration of Carnegie Hall itself — (applause) … that we are actually going to deviate from our format, ladies and gentlemen — (applause) — now, some of you might find this a little bit too deviated, however, the first selection that we are gonna perform is a new piece, it’s, ah, receiving its New York premiere at this time — (frenetic applause) — and its, ah, you may think it’s shitty when you hear it, what you’re clapping for now? — (laughter) — ’ts we’, it’s nice to know you’re on our side.
(Yeah!)
Mark Volman: Rite on! Brothers and sisters!
FZ: Just send those groovy vibes right on up here to the stage! Just … blow ’em right on up here!
Now listen!
Mark Volman: Wild Man Fisher, ladies and gentlemen!
FZ: The reason why some of you might find us a little bit too devious is because … it’s in German!
