Concentration Moon
Over the camp in the valley
Concentration Moon
Wish I was back in the alley
With all of my friends
Still running free
Hair growing out
Every hole in me

American way
How did it start?
Thousands of creeps
Killed in the park
American way
Try and explain
Scab of a nation
Driven insane
Don't cry
Gotta go bye bye
Suddenly: die die
Cop kill a creep!
Pow! Pow! Pow!

Gary Kellgren: Tomorrow I get to do another Frank Zappa creation ... and the day after that ... and the day after that ...

JCB: Hi, boys & girls, I'm Jimmy Carl Black, and I'm the Indian of the group.

Concentration 
Moon
Over the camp in the valley
Concentration Moon
Wish I was back in the alley
With all of my friends
Still running free
Hair growing out
Every hole in me

American way
Threatened by us
Drag a few creeps
Away in a bus
American way
Prisoner: lock
Smash every creep
In the face with a rock
Don't 
cry
Gotta go bye bye
Suddenly: die die
Cop kill a creep!
Pow! Pow! Pow!
