In France
Lyrics - © Frank Zappa

We're playin' in a tent
It's payin' the rent
If you pooch a civilian
It's a major event
In France
Way down in France
Way on down
Way on down
In France

The girls is all salty
And the boys is all sweet
The food ain't too shabby
An' they piss in the street
In France
Way down in France
Way on down
Way on down
In France

They got the diseases
Like you ain't never seen
Got a mystery blow-job
Turn your peter green
In France
Way down in France
Way on down
Way on down
In France

They got some coffee
Eatin' right through the cup
An' when you go ka-ka
They make you stand up

In France
Way down in France
Way on down
Way on down
In France

If you're not careful
It'll stick to your cheeks
You'll smell like a native
For a couple of weeks
In France
Way down in France
Way on down
Way on down
In France

We cannot wait
Till we go back
It get so exciting
When the poodles 'react'
In France
Way down in France
Way on down
Way on down
In France

Never try to get your peter sucked
In France

If I Had a Rocket Launcher



.....here comes the helicopter -- second time today
everybody scatters and hopes it goes away

how many kids they've murdered only god can say


if i had a rocket launcher...i'd make somebody pay.



i don't believe in guarded borders and i don't believe in hate
i don't believe in generals or their stinking torture states

and when i talk with the survivors of things too sickening to relate


if i had a rocket launcher...i would retaliate



on the rio lacantun one hundred thousand wait
to fall down from starvation -- or some less humane fate.

cry for guatemala, with a corpse in every gate


if i had a rocket launcher...i would not hesitate



i want to raise every voice -- at least i've got to try.
every time i think about it water rises to my eyes.

situation desperate echoes of the victims cry


if i had a rocket launcher...some sonofa#&%!$ would die




wow powerful words...

PARIS, France (Reuters) -- U.S. citizens have turned on French fries and toast to vent their frustration at France's anti-war stance on Iraq. Now the French have joined in the food war -- with pretzels.

A French Web site is urging people to send pretzels to U.S. President, who fainted and fell off a sofa in January 2002 after gagging on the salty snack.

The Web site, www.bretzelforbush.com, says the pretzels will be stored at a secret location before being sent to the White House in a historic mass action.

The retaliation follows moves by some in the United States to change the names of French fries and French toast to Freedom fries and Freedom toast.

The pretzels are on sale for seven euros ($7.56) each, with one euro going to a children's charity. So far some 250 euros have been raised for the charity.

"We think that to oppose war is not to be against the American people, but simply against the politics of the Bush administration," the Web site says.

After the fainting incident, Bush lamented not heeding his mother's advice to chew pretzels before swallowing and his wife Laura joked he was now "practicing safe snacks."
