Notes About This Song

The time signature is a concatenation of 5/16, 5/4, 2/4 & 5/4

Warren Cuccurullo is from Canarsie which is a working class and middle class residential and commercial neighborhood in the southeastern portion of the borough of Brooklyn, in New York City, United States. It is Cuccurullo who speaks the phrase "Canarsie, where everyone looks the same". In March of 2018 Alex Winter, during Kickstarter fund raising for the documentary Zappa, released a short video clip of Frank Zappa in the control room during the overdubbing of Warren speaking this phrase.
