Meek Shall Inherit Nothing
Frank Zappa
THE MEEK SHALL INHERIT NOTHING By Frank Zappa Album: You Are What You Is Some take the bible for what it’s worth When it says that the meek shall inherit the earth Well I heard that some sheik Bought New Jersey last week And you suckers ain’t gettin’ nothing! ((((This line is all single note in the bass except the F at the F.)))) Is Hare Rama really wrong If you wander around with a napkin on With a bell on a stick An’ your hair is all gone... (The geek shall inherit nothin’) A^Bb You say your life’s a bum deal A^Bb And you’re up against the wall Well people you ain’t even got no kind of deal at all A^Bb ’Cause what they do A^Bb In Washington They just takes care of number one And number one ain’t you You ain’t even number two! Those Jesus freaks well they’re friendly but The shit they believe has got their minds all shut An’ they don’t even care When the church takes a cut Ain’t it bleak when you got so much nothin’ So whaddya do? Eat that pork eat that ham Laugh till you choke on Billy Graham Moses Aaron and Abraham they’re all a waste of time And it’s your ass that’s on the line (It’s your ass that’s on the line) Do what you wanna do what you will Just don’t mess up your neighbor’s thrill And when you pay the bill Kindly leave a little tip And help the next poor sucker on his one way trip Some take the bi - ble oh oh (Awww give me half a dozen for the hotel room)
