Village Of The Sun Lyrics - Frank Zappa

Thank you . . . thank you very much . . . awright, does anybody here know where Palmdale is? You do? Good, do you, have you ever heard of a place called Sun Village? You, some, some of you know where Sun Village is, awright, it's out in back on Palmdale, awright. At one time, that used to be a, uh, big place for . . . raisin' turkeys, and, uh, I went to high school in Lancaster which is not far from, uh, from, uh, Palm . . . Oh! Is it very good for other things out there now? Good . . . (Ken, turn me up so they can hear what I'm saying) Ladies and Gentlemen, this is a song about this place where I used to live where they used to raise turkeys (ready . . .?) 

Goin' back home 

To the Village of the Sun 

Out in back of Palmdale 

Where the turkey farmers run, I done 

Made up my mind 

And I know I'm gonna go to Sun 

Village, good God I hope the 

Wind don't blow 

It take the paint off your car 

And wreck your windshield too, 

I don't know how the people stand it, 

But I guess they do 

Cause they're all still there, 

Even Johnny Franklin too 

In the Village of the Sun 

Village of the Sun 

Village of the Sun, son 

(Sun Village to you-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo, well!)

Little Mary, and Teddy, and Thelma too, now 

Where Palmdale Boulevard, wo! 

Cuts on through 

Past the Village Inn, well, & Barbecue now, yeah 

(I heard it ain't there . . . 

Well I hope it ain't true) 

Where the stumblers gonna go 

To watch the lights turn blue? 

Where the stumblers gonna go 

To watch the lights turn blue-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-wahhh? 

Goin' back home 

To the Village of the Sun 

Out in back of Palmdale 

Where the turkey farmers run, I done 

Made up my mind 

And I know I'm gonna go to Sun 

Village, good God I hope the 

Wind don't blow
