Notes About This Song

During the version on Make A Jazz Noise Here, Zappa says: "May you never hear "vloerbedekking" again!" This is a reference to another concert (71/11/27 Rotterdam Netherlands The Ahoy), when Zappa and the Mothers sang a Dutch sentence: "Geef mij wat vloerbedekking onder deze vette zwevende sofa" ("Give me some floor coverage underneath this fat, floating sofa." ). The word "vloerbedekking" also appeared in a cartoon Zappa made with Belgian cartoonist Kamagurka in 1975.
