Find Her Finer
Frank Zappa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Find her finer, sneak up behind her
Wrapped like a mummy 'till you finally unwind her
Find her blinder, see who designed her
Act like a dummy 'till you finally grind her

If you should see a girl on the street
Now maybe you might think she is sweet
But if you wanna tickle her treat
Now really, what should you do?
(Rat-tat-tat-tat ta-da!)

Don't never let her know you are smart
The universe is no place to start
You gotta play it straight from the heart
She gwine renunciate you
(That's why you gotta)

Find her finer, sneak up behind her
Wrapped like a mummy 'till you finally unwind her
Find her blinder, see who designed her
Act like a dummy 'till you finally grind her

Now maybe you might think this is crude
And maybe you might think I am rude
And maybe this approach I have spewed
Is not the one for you
(Rat-tat-tat-tat ta-da!)

But believe me later on you'll find
As you impress her with your mind
That you would just be left behind
For a wiser fool
(So you might as well)

Find her finer, sneak up behind her
Wrapped like a mummy 'till you finally unwind her
Find her blinder, see who designed her
Act like a dummy 'till you finally grind her

Find her finer, sneak up behind her
Wrapped like a mummy 'till you finally unwind her
Find her blinder, see who designed her
Act like a dummy 'till you finally grind her

Find her finer, sneak up behind her
Wrapped like a mummy 'till you finally unwind her
Find her blinder, see who designed her
Act like a dummy 'till you finally grind her

Find her finer, sneak up behind her
Wrapped like a mummy 'till you finally unwind her
Find her blinder, see who designed her
Act like a dummy 'till you finally grind her

Find her finer, sneak up behind her
Wrapped like a mummy 'till you finally unwind her




Find her blinder, see who designed her
Act like a dummy 'till you finally grind her

Overall Meaning

"Find Her Finer" is a song by Frank Zappa from his 1976 album Zoot Allures. The song is a satirical commentary on the male-female dynamic, particularly the idea of using tricks and manipulation to get what you want from women. Zappa's lyrics are intentionally crude and provocative, and they challenge traditional gender roles and power dynamics.


The opening lines of the song, "Find her finer, sneak up behind her, wrapped like a mummy 'til you finally unwind her," suggest that the best way to approach a woman is to be sneaky and manipulative. The song then goes on to suggest that men should act dumb and clueless in order to get women to lower their guard and reveal their true desires. However, the final verse of the song suggests that this approach is ultimately self-defeating, as women will eventually see through the facade and reject men who are not genuinely interested in them.


Zappa's lyrics are accompanied by a funky, up-tempo groove that underscores the playful, irreverent tone of the song. The rhythm section lays down a tight, syncopated beat, while Zappa's guitar work adds a jazzy, improvisational flavor to the song. The result is a catchy, fun-loving song that invites listeners to dance and sing along, even as it challenges traditional gender roles and expectations.


Overall, "Find Her Finer" is a clever and satirical take on male-female relationships, using humor and wit to subvert traditional gender dynamics and challenge listeners to think critically about their own assumptions and biases.
