  • But one night, at the Social Club meeting
    Mary didn't show up
    She was sucking cock backstage at The Armory
    In order to get a pass
    To see some big rock group for free

    Hey, hey, hey all you girls in these industrial towns
    I know you're probably gettin' tired of all the local clowns
    They never give you no respect, they never treat you nice
    So perhaps you oughta try a little friendly advice

    And be a crew slut
    Hey, you'll love it
    Be a crew slut
    It's a way of life
    Be a crew slut
    See the world
    Don't make a fuss, just get on the bus
    Crew slut
    Add water, makes its own sauce
    Be a crew slut
    So you don't forget, call before midnight tonight
    The boys in the crew are just waiting for you

    You never get to move around, you never go nowhere
    I know you probably gettin' tired of all the guys out there
    You always wondered what it's like to go from place to place
    So, darlin', take a little ride on the mixer's face

    Be a crew slut
    Just follow the magic footprints
    Be a crew slut
    Hey, you'll love it
    Be a crew slut
    It's a way of life
    I ain't gonna squash it and you don't need to wash it
    Crew slut
    Hey, I'll buy you a pizza
    Be a crew slut
    Of course I'll introduce you to Warren
    The boys in the crew are only waiting for you

    Well you been to Alabama, girl 'n Georgia too
    'N all the boys in the crew is bein' good to you
    I know you're sayin' to yourself, "This is the way to go"
    'Cause when you need a little extra they will give you some mo'

    'Cause you're the crew slut
    I'm into leather
    That's good (crew slut) a lot of the boys in the crew love leather
    And rubber? (Crew slut)
    Yeah, they like rubber too, shrink-tubing with a hair dryer
    Trade your spot on the bench for a guy with a wrench
    And be a crew slut (ha, ha, ha, ha)
    Would you like that, huh? (Crew slut)
    I told you you'd love it
    It's a way of life

    The guys in the crew have got a present for you
    (Ba-baby, ba-dada, ba-dada)
    A present for me?
    (Ba-baby, ba-dada, ba-dada)
    Mm, we got a present for you
    (Ba-baby, ba-dada, ba-dada)
    Whaddya got? (Ba-baby, ba-dada, ba-dada)
    Whaddya gonna give me?
    It looks just like a Telefunken U-47
    You'll love it
    With leather?

    Eh errr, eh eh
    This is the Central Scrutinizer, again
    And so Mary was enticed away from Joe
    By an evil barbarian with a wrench in his pocket
    Lured into a life of sleazery
    With the entire road crew of some famous rock group
    I don't know whether it was really Toad-O or not
    I'll check it out-
    Again we see music causing big trouble! Writer/s: Frank Zappa
