Captain Beefheart

Don Van Vliet ( /væn ˈvliːt/, born Don Glen Vliet; January 15, 1941 – December 17, 2010) was an American musician, singer-songwriter, artist and poet widely known by the stage name Captain Beefheart. His musical work was conducted with a rotating ensemble of musicians called The Magic Band, active between 1965 and 1982, with whom he recorded 13 studio albums. Noted for his powerful singing voice with its wide range, Van Vliet also played the harmonica, saxophone and numerous other wind instruments. His music blended rock, blues and psychedelia with avant-garde and contemporary experimental composition. Beefheart was also known for exercising an almost dictatorial control over his supporting musicians, and for often constructing myths about his life. more »

I saw yuh baby dancin` in your x-ray gingham dress 
I knew you were under duress 
I knew you were under yer dress 
Just keep comin` Jesus 
Your the best dressed 
You look dandy in the sky but you don`t scare me 
Cause I got you here in my eye 
In this lifetime you got m`humangetsmeblues 
With yer jaw hangin` slack n` yer hair`s curlin` 
Like an ole navy fork stickin` in the sunset 
The way you were dancin` I knew you`d never come back 
You were strainin` t` keep yer 
Old black cracked patent shoes 
In this lifetime you got m`humangetsmeblues 
Well the way you`d been ole lady 
I could see the fear in yer windows 
Under yer furry crawlin` brow 
Uh silver bow rings up in inches 
You were afraid you`d be the devils red wife 
But it`s alright God dug yer dance 
'N would have you young `n in his harum 
Dress you the way he wants cause he never had uh doll 
Cause everybody made him uh boy 
'N God didn't think t` ask his preference 
You can bring yer dress `n yer favorite dog 
'N yer husbands cane 
'N yer old spotted dog 
Cause in this lifetime 
You've got m`humangetsmeblues
