...the sumptin' hoop The blimp the blimp Lyrics from 81 poop hatch from the disc Ice cream for crow An ant's vision...and the mice played in its air holes and valves...a ladybug crawled off its mouthpiece standing out red and blacked out its wings and blew off to a flower...its hum heard just above the ground...black dots were hung in what turned out to be an olive tree Captain Beef hearts music was/is experimental, blues, rock underground music.
