Lyrics - © Frank Zappa

Flies all green and buzzin' in his dungeon of despair
Prisoners grumble and piss their clothes and scratch their matted hair
A tiny light from a window hole a hundred yards away
Is all they ever gets to know about the regular light in the day

And it stinks so bad, the stones been chokin' and weepin' greenish drops
In the room where the giant fire puffer works and the torture never stops

The torture never stops.

Slime and rot, rats and snot and vomit on the floor
Fifty ugly soldiers men holdin' spears by the iron door
Knives and spikes and guns and the likes of every tool of pain
And a sinister little midget with a bucket and a mop
Where the blood goes down the drain

And it stinks so bad the stones been chokin' and weepin' greenish drops
In the room where the giant fire puffer works and the torture never stops

The torture never stops. The torture. The torture.
The torture never stops.

Flies all green and buzzin' in his dungeon of despair
An evil prince eats a steaming pig in a chamber right near there
He eats the snouts and the trotters first
The loins and the groins is soon dispersed
His carvin' style is well rehearsed
He stands and shouts:

All men be cursed! All men be cursed!
All men be cursed! All men be cursed!


And disagree? well, no one durst
He's the best of course of all the worst
Some wrong been done he done it first

And it stinks so bad his bones been chokin' and weepin' greenish drops
In the night of the iron sausage where the torture never stops.
The torture never stops. The torture. The torture.
The torture never stops

Flies all green and buzzin' in his dungeon of despair
Who are all those people that he's locked away down there?
Are they crazy? Are they sainted? Are they zeroes someone painted?

And it's never been explained since it first it was created
But a dungeon like a sin requires naught but lockin' in
of everything that's ever been
Look at her
Look at him

That's what's the deal we're dealin' in
That's what's the deal we're dealin' in
That's what's the deal we're dealin' in
That's what's the deal we're dealin' in
