Rhymin Man Lyrics by Frank Zappa

Rhymin Man Lyrics

    Rhymin' Man,
    Tall and tan,
    Rhyme or reason,
    Play your hand --
    Rhyme on this -- rhyme on that
    Oh, you naughty Democrat!

    They say when Doctor King got shot,
    Jesse hatched an evil plot,
    Dipped his hands in the Doctor's blood,
    'N rubbed his shirt like playin' with mud
    Looked around for all the press
    'N said: 'Check me out, my name is Jess!
    I'll be known from towns 'n farms --
    Doctor King died in my arms!'

    Rhymin' Man,
    Tall and tan,
    Rhyme or reason,
    Play your hand --
    Rhyme on this -- rhyme on that
    Oh, you naughty Democrat!

    A few years later, legend says,
    Rhymin' man made a run for Prez
    Farrakhan made him a clown,
    Over there near Hymie-Town
    Said he was a diplomat --
    Hobbin' an-a-knobbin' with Arafat
    Castro was simpatico,
    But the U.S. voters, they said: 'No!'

    Rhymin' Man,
    Tall and tan,
    Rhyme or reason,
    Play your hand --
    Rhyme on this -- rhyme on that
    Oh, you naughty Democrat!

    Okay, here we go again!
    Rhymin' Man says he's your friend
    Any fool can make a rhyme --
    Cowboys do it all the time
    People say: 'Now he's mature!'
    Cowboys rhyme that with horse manure

    Horse manure!
    That's for sure!
    You been cheatin' --
    We kept score!
    Are you 'this'?
    Or are you 'that'?
    Oh, you naughty
    Democrat!
