Black Tongue Lyrics - Singles - Gene Simmons

(Gene Simmons, Frank Zappa) 

Frank: 

"Alright kids, here's a real rock 'n roll song" 

[Verse] 

Frank says... 

If everyone says your hair's too long 

Or else it's far too short... 

Don't ever afford yourself for anyone else of course 

If anyone says, when you play guitar, 

It's always much too loud 

You can tell them to stick it 

You won't get far if you're not far out 

[Chorus] 

My black tongue's coming right out of me 

Drowning out my misery 

Black tongue is coming out 

My black tongue's always hanging out of me (that's right) 

I'm going down in history 

Guitar, one time... 

[Verse] 

Frank says... 

If everyone says you're much too old 

You're out of style... 

Just tell them you're doing their sister and mommy every once in a while 

And if everyone says you've got a big mouth, 

You refuse to shut-up 

Just tell them to kiss your behind 

Just tell them to kiss your behind 

[Chorus] 

My black tongue's coming right out of me 

Drowning out my misery 

Black tongue is out 

My black tongue's always hanging out of me 

I'm going down in history 

Guitar... 

[Guitar Solo] 

Black tongue is out... 

Frank: 

"Listen, you guys don't give a shit what we play, you just wanna make noise" 

My black tongue's coming right out of me 

Drowning out my misery 

My black tongue's always hanging out of me 

Going down in history 

My black tongue's always hanging out of me 

Drowning out my misery 

My black tongue's always hanging out of me 

Going down in history 

Frank: 

"Take notice of what these weirdos are saying, what they are doing. You never know, they might know something you don't know, huh?"
