Verse 1:
I am the heaven,
I am the water.
Ich bin der Dreck unter deinen Wal-zen,
(Oh no, whip it on me, honey!)
Ich bin dein geheimer Schmutz,(Ha-ha-ha!)
Und verlorenes Metallgeld.
(Metallgeld)
Ich bin deine Ritze,
Ich bin deine Ritze und Schlitze.
Verse 2:
I am the clouds,
I am embroidered.
Ich bin der Autor aller Fel-gen,
Und Dam-ast Pas-peln.
Ich bin der Chrome Din-ette,
Ich bin der Chrome Din-ette.
Ich bin Ei-er aller Arten.[Falsetto]

Notes:
1. This TAB is a simple transcription of the basic chords and does not pretend to
represent the harmonic complexity that Frank Zappa's MOI band introduced into each
verse.
2. The album features the final version of 'The Mothers of Invention', with George
Duke, Chester Thompson, Ruth Underwood, Tom Fowler and Napoleon Murphy Brock.
