Luyện nghe bài hát Joe's Garage

A old garage in a residential area with a teen-age band
rehearsing in it. JOE (the character in the CENTRAL
SCRUTINIZER'S Presentation) sings to us of the trials and
of garage-band husbandry.

Central
We you now, to a garage, in Canoga Park.

Zappa:
(It makes own sauce...)

It wasn't very
There was just room to cram the drums
In the corner over by the
It was a
With a mashed up
And a little amp
With a sign on the said "Fender Champ"
And a second hand
It was a Stratocaster with a bar

At this point, LARRY (a guy who eventually give up music and
earn a respectable living as a roadie for a group Toad-O)
in the song...

We jam in Joe's Garage
His mama was
His dad was mad
We was playin' the same old
In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we
Play it all night
It was all we knew, 'n' too
So we get it wrong
All we did was the string like...
Hey!
Down in Joe's
We didn't no dope or LSD
But a coupla beer
Would fix it so the
not offend yer ear
And the same old chords over 'n' over
a symphony
We would it again 'n' again 'n' again
'Cause it sounded to me
ONE TIME!
We could jam in Joe's
His was screamin',
"TURN IT DOWN!"
We was playing' the same old
In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we
Play it all night
It was all we knew, and too
So we get it wrong
if you played it on a saxophone
We thought we was pretty
We talked about the band together
'N' we figured we should
'Cause about this we was gettin' the eye
From the in the neighborhood
They'd all come over 'n' dance
like...

Twenty teen-age dash
in and go STOMP-CLAP,
STOMP-CLAP-CLAP...

So we picked out a name
Had cards printed up for a coupla bucks
'N' we was on our way to
Got matching suits 'N' Beatle
'N' a sign on the of the car
'N' we was to work in a GO-GO Bar

ONE TWO THREE
SEE IF YOU GOT SOME MORE!

People to like our song
got up 'n' danced 'n' made a lotta noise
An' it wasn't 'fore very
A guy from a company we name
we oughta take his pen
'N' on the line for a real good time
But he didn't tell us
These "good times" would be
was really happenin'
So the broke up
An' it like
We never play again...

Guess you only get one chance in
To play a song that like...

(And, as the band plays little song,
MRS. BORG (who her son SY,
in the closet the vacuum cleaner)
out the window...

Mrs.

I have children here...
Don't you boys know any songs?

(Speculating on the future)
Well the was rollin' by, yeah
Metal 'n' Glitter Rock
Had the public eye, yeah
Snotty boys lipstick on
Was really high, yeah
'N' then got that Disco thing
'N' New came along
'N' all of a sudden I the time
Had come for that old
We to play in "Joe's Garage"
And if I am not
You soon be dancin' to...

Central
