Frank Zappa – Village Of The Sun Lyrics  Share

From Frank Zappa's album: Roxy & Elsewhere

FZ: 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

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!)
