Tango #2 Intro Songtext
von Frank Zappa

Now here comes the important part of our program
Ladies and gentlemen
Give me a little atmospheric music George
Some of you may know that the tango
Which is not a very popular dance anymore
Was at one time reputed to be a dance of
Unbridled passion
Back in the old days when it wasn′t so easy
To get your rocks off, when it hard was to make
Contact with a member of the opposite camp
And you had to resort to things like
Dancing close together and going "hey!"
Those were the days, well those days are
Probably gone forever, I don't know unless
Nixon is going to bring them back a little it later
But we have this very special Highly evolved, permutated tango
Its actually a perverted tango
By the time--yes, its so perverted
This is the Be-Bop Tango, a special entertainment event
That includes choreography a little bit later
So watch out folks, you can turn on the big lights
We may need ′em, you know the ones in the audience
OK, you ready? Not too fast now 'cause I wanna get
The right notes on the tape, this has to be the one
This has to be the one with all the right notes in it
OK, ready? And this is a hard one to play
And that's why I don′t play on it
One, two, three, four
Too fast! One, two, three, four--too slow
One, two, three, four


No, no we lost the groove
One, two, three, four
