To commemorate this, Roy Estrada strides on stage wearing a floor length chain-mail dress with enormous aluminum tits, and an ornate Catholic ceremonial head-dress. He is carrying a childs plastic sand bucket filled with SMARTYS (the British equivalent of M&Ms). The inscription on the bucket reads NO MORE UGLY BABIES! While chanting in Latin, he hurls fistfuls of candy into the audience, in lieu of birth control pills. He approaches Ian in his robotically transformed state and begs for an audition as an opera singer with Ians new group, claiming that he has to leave The Mothers -- he's holding the group back because he's a Mexican (He actually used to think this was true, and told me so on several occasions.) FZ: Then from out of the corner from the stage comes Roy Ralph Estrada perturbed at the present situation within the Mothers. Roy Estrada: Domino Domino Vo-bisqu-u-u-um Domino Vo-bisqu-u-u-um Amen Domino Vo-bisqum Hallelujah Et cum spiritu tuo Ian, I dont think I qualify for the Mothers FZ: They're making up their lines as they go along isn't it thrilling? Ian: Why, Roy? Roy: Because I don't think I'm qualified. I think I'm holding the group back because I'm a Mexican, and also because I don't play bass good. Ian: I don't care how you can play bass but we have no Mexicans in this group. Roy: And I wanna join your group. Ian: No Mexicans! Roy: I can sing opera, I cut my hair, I got all my shit together here. I can do it. Ian: I don't care how you look you gotta be able to cut the part. Roy: I can sing, please, please, give me a chance. Ian: I don't believe you can sing. Roy: Please, please hear my plea, please Ian please, I can do it, give me a chance. Please, please. Oh, oh, oh, please. Ian: Okay mexican, okay Mexican, sing this note. Roy: You think everything is gonna be alright. Ian: Okay you passed the first part of the audition now you gotta sing. Roy: Mi, mi, mi, mi, mi Related Lyrics Random lyrics: I Aint Got No Heart, I Aint Got No Heart (in album Tinseltown Rebellio, I Come From Nowhere, I Dont Even Care, I Dont Wanna Get Drafted, I Have Been In You, Ian Underwood Whips It Out, Im A Band Leader, Im A Beautiful Guy, Im Not Satisfied, Im Not Satisfied (in album Cruising With Ruben &, Im So Cute, Im Stealing The Towels, Im The Slime, If Only She Woulda, If Wed All Been Living In California, In France, Inca Roads, Introduction, Invocation And Ritual Dance Of The Young Pumpkin, It Cant Happen Here, It Just Might Be A One-Shot Deal, Janets Big Dance Number, Jelly Roll Gum Drop, Jessie Lee, Jesus Thinks Youre A Jerk, Jewish Princess, Jezebel Boy, Joes Garage, Johnny Darling, Jones Crusher, Jumbo Go Away, Just One More Time, Keep It Greasey, Keep It Greasy, Kennys Booger Story, King Kong, Later That Night, Latex Solar Beef, Lemme Take You To The Beach, Lets Make The Water Turn Black, Lets Move To Cleveland, Letter From Jeepers, Like It Or Not, Little Girl Of Mine, Little Green Scratchy Sweaters & Courduroy Ponce, Little Green Scratchy Sweaters Courduroy Ponce, Little House I Used To Live In, Little House I Used To Live In (in album Fillmore, Little Rubber Girl, Other Zappa Frank song Lyrics 200 Years Old Lyrics 50 50 Lyrics A Few Moments With Brother A.
