You're a dor-r-r-r-k

You are a dork, dork, dork, dor-r-r-r-k!
Nobody wants to...

You are boring...you have nothing to say
You eat cheese -- you eat cheese and other things
You can can wrap up an' take with you

With Luigi & The Wise Guys at the table

  "...an inconsistent a capella doo-wop parody that accused a crew member of being a dork..."

We don't want to hurt your feelings
But you're a dor-r-r-r-k!
Might as well admit it
When you're a dork
You're a dork all the way

  I used to have a bootleg audience tape of Luigi & the Wise Guys that sounds like it was originally done like the Dangerous Kitchen (speech-sang). It segued into Truck Driver Divorce which was done the same way...Frank sort of half singing and the band making noises to follow him. I hope someday these prototype versions get released cause they are much funnier. On the tape I heard, when Zappa is a couple of verses into You Look Like a Dork, an irate audience member is clearly heard to exclaim "I'M GOING HOME!!!
