Warning, potential trigger words ahead:
18:11 Saddam Parsifal: I have heard that song before
18:11 Saddam It isn't very good
18:11 Parsifal >mfw sadaam
18:11 Saddam And I'm sorry to say this, but it seems to be a thing for Zappa:
18:11 Crudblud Foxbox: Yes, there is also a starfish called Bawmmmmm
18:12 beardo Saddam: Saddam
18:12 beardo lore
18:12 Saddam Many of his songs don't really have anything going for them beyond their outrageous lyrics
18:12 Foxbox ok
18:12 Crudblud Saddam is a dumbass dick
18:12 Parsifal Saddam: Have you only been listening to the few that get radio airtime or something?
18:12 Saddam Not even particularly good lyrics, just creepy ones
18:12 Saddam No
18:12 Foxbox I don't believe sadaam
18:12 Saddam The only one I ever heard on the radio was "Dancin' Fool"
18:12 Crudblud No one should
18:12 Foxbox Mr. Singles Only
18:12 Snupes To be honest, I'm still not a huge Zappa fan. I'm more interested in his later stuff that was a bit more out there, because honestly I don't find him particularly funny.
18:12 Parsifal Most of his best works are instrumental, so I have no idea where you're getting that impression from
18:13 Saddam I actually quite liked that one
18:13 Snupes Or not necessarily his later stuff
18:13 Saddam I agree with you that he's at his best instrumentally
18:13 Snupes But yeah, his instrumental stuff. Or more musically-interesting ones.
18:13 Parsifal Snupes: There's plenty of that stuff on Guitar
18:13 Snupes oic
18:13 Saddam I'm just saying that his more conventional songs are basically just "lewd lyrics here, hey aren't I super-edgy and controversial"
18:13 Crudblud It depends, I mean, in general I agree his lyrical works tend to be throwaway amusements
18:14 Crudblud But I think there's plenty of stuff that's also good satire
18:15 Parsifal Saddam should listen to You Are What You Is
18:15 Snupes There is no such thing s good satire.
18:15 Parsifal It has some very good lyrics, most of which aren't lewd
18:15 Crudblud Not to mention, even in his worst songs, there's usually something interesting going on in terms of the instrumentation
18:15 Parsifal The track "Mudd Club" also includes my all-time favourite Zappa lyric
18:15 Foxbox The Love Club
18:15 Snupes What lyrics is that?
18:15 Crudblud Gun Club
18:15 Snupes Foxbox: That is a magnificent song
18:15 Crudblud What am potatoes?
18:15 Foxbox Snupes: I like it
18:16 Parsifal Snupes: Lyric, singular, and it is this, which is said all in one breath:
18:16 Crudblud Saddam: Have you listened to Läther?
18:16 Snupes That is a weird lyric
18:17 Foxbox It is
18:17 Parsifal And all the rest of whom for which to whensonever of partially indeterminate biochemical degradation seek the path to the sudsy yellow nozzle of their foaming, nocturnal, parametric, digital, whole-wheat, inter-faith, geothermal, terpsichorean ejectamenta
18:17 beardo Talk about something else.
18:17 *** beardo was kicked by Parsifal (Parsifal)
