Ronnie: We lived in a little room, man.
It was, it was probably a fourth as big as, as your livin' room, Frank (cough).
And uh, everytime we picked a booger we'd flip it on this one winduh, or wipe it there if we couldn't flip it there, y'know.
And uh, I guess Dwight stayed with me for about .
.
.
'bout seven months, wasn't ità Six months? And uh, every night we'd contribute, y'know, two or three or four boogers, y'know.
And when he left uh, my mom knew what was goin' on all the time but we thought we had her hoodwinked.
Heh-heh.
She was smarter with, than we, than what we were.
An' she made us clean 'em off, y'know? We used Ajax and, and we couldn't get them things, we had to use a, had to use a putty knife, man, to get them damn things off the winduh.
You couldn't even see out the winduh with all them boogers, man.
I'm not kiddin' you (sniff).
An' there was big ones too, an' there was little, and there was some goober ones that weren't even hard, man, you'd just smear 'em, young ones.
It's like fro-, you, you've seen frosted glasses.
That winduh was just like a frosted glass with spots all over it, y'know? And uh, (sniff) it was, it was no good.
Although, th-that, that was the good ol' days, so .

The lyrics RONNIE'S BOOGER STORY of FRANK ZAPPA is also present in the album The lost episodes (1996)
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.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
