Even if you have never heard of him, Frank Zappa had this entire theater written as a song.

So to give the ghost of Frank some lasting applause of his crystal ball, I'll post it here.

1973 was a very good year for many. But not in the mind of Frank Zappa and "The Slime"!

I am gross and perverted

I'm obsessed 'n deranged

I have existed for years

But very little has changed

I'm the tool of the Government

And industry too

For I am destined to rule

And regulate you

I may be vile and pernicious

But you can't look away

I make you think I'm delicious

With the stuff that I say

I'm the best you can get

Have you guessed me yet?

I'm the slime oozin' out

From your TV set

You will obey me while I lead you

And eat the garbage that I feed you

Until the day that we don't need you

Don't go for help, no one will heed you

Your mind is totally controlled

It has been stuffed into my mold

And you will do as you are told

Until the rights to you are sold

That's right, folks . . .

Don't touch that dial

Well, I am the slime from your video

Oozin' along on your livin' room floor

I am the slime from your video

Can't stop the slime, people, lookit me go!

Remember when they shut down most all of the medical/dental clinics for Covscam1.

But allowed all the abortion clinics to remain open as essential. Yeah, that memory!
