One of the best and most recognizable Zappa songs ever, one of his signature tunes. It's in my top five for sure. Great mix. The visual is awesome. I listened to this at 9am. It made my day. I really miss going to Zappa concerts, what an event those were. My bud and I saw FZ every time he came to Cleveland Oh. from 1974 on. My friend would go to the shows with a "Suzy Creamcheese" blow up doll on his shoulders the whole time. She ended up on stage once, hilarity ensued. RIP FZ.

I swear but this song could be used as a national anthem for some countries.
