ZZ Top

ZZ Top is an American rock band from Houston, Texas. Formed in 1969, the group consists of Billy Gibbons (guitar and vocals), Dusty Hill (bass and vocals), and Frank Beard (percussion). ZZ Top's early sound was rooted in blues but eventually grew to exhibit contemporary influences. Throughout their career they have maintained a sound based on Hill's and Beard's rhythm section support, accentuated by Gibbons' guitar and vocal style. Their lyrics often gave evidence of band's humor and thematically focus on personal experiences and sexual innuendos. more »

 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

Woman, grab your children, run and hide.
Don't let it catch up with you.
You gotta fight it to stay alive, 
And if it gets you, man, you're through.
 
It smells so rotten and rank.
Well, everybody calls it the squank.
 
It's sick, depressing, getting bigger all the time.
Don't help it any way you can.
It's grey and brown and sometimes lime
And it's spreading all over the land.
 
And soon we'll be all breathing out of tanks
If something ain't done about the squank.
 
The meanest thing the world's ever bred
By me and you and my kin fold too.
A monster can't live unless it's fed,
And it's being fed by me and you.
And soon it's gonna leave the world blank,
And we'll all be erased by the squank.
