I am gross and perverted
I'm obsessed 'n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little has changed
I'm the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you
I may be vile and pernicious
But you can't look away
I make you think I'm delicious
With the stuff that I say
I'm the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I'm the slime oozin' out
From your TV set
You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don't need you
Don't go for help . . . no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold
That's right, folks . . .
Don't touch that dial
Well, I am the slime from your video
Oozin' along on your livin' room floor
I am the slime from your video
Can't stop the slime, people, lookit me go
I am the slime from your video
Oozin' along on your livin' room floor
I am the slime from your video
Can't stop the slime, people, lookit me go

Frank Vincent Zappa (1940-1993) è stato un musicista, compositore, produttore discografico e regista statunitense considerato uno dei più influenti artisti del XX secolo. Nato a Baltimore, Maryland, Zappa iniziò la sua carriera musicale negli anni '60 come leader del gruppo The Mothers of Invention, con cui pubblicò album innovativi e provocatori che mescolavano rock, jazz, musica classica e avant-garde. Conosciuto per il suo talento polistrumentale, la sua scrittura complessa e le sue performance energiche, Zappa ha prodotto una vasta discografia di oltre 60 album in studio. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi figurano "Purple Haze", "Peaches en Regalia" e "Billy the Mountain". Oltre alla musica, Zappa si è dedicato anche al cinema, dirigendo film come "200 Motels" (1971) e scrivendo saggi politici. La sua eredità musicale continua a influenzare generazioni di artisti.
