WE ALL CAME DOWN
TO MONTREUX
ON THE LAKE
GENEVA SHORELINE
TO MAKE RECORDS
WITH A MOBILE
WE DIDN'T HAVE
MUCH TIME
FRANK ZAPPA
AND THE MOTHERS
WERE AT
THE BEST PLACE
AROUND
BUT SOME STUPID
WITH A FLARE GUN
BURNED THE PLACE
TO THE GROUND
SMOKE ON THE WATER
FIRE IN THE SKY
SMOKE ON THE WATER
THEY BURNED DOWN
THE GAMBLING HOUSE
IT DIED
WITH AN AWFUL SOUND
A FUNKY CLAUDE
WAS RUNNING
IN AND OUT
PULLING KIDS
OUT THE GROUND
WHEN IT ALL WAS OVER
WE HAD TO FIND
ANOTHER PLACE
BUT SWISS TIME
WAS RUNNING OUT
IT SEEMED THAT WE
WOULD LOSE THE RACE
SMOKE ON THE WATER
FIRE IN THE SKY
SMOKE ON THE WATER
WE ENDED UP
AT THE GRAND HOTEL
IT WAS EMPTY
COLD AND BARE
BUT WITH THE ROLLING
TRUCK STONES THING
JUST OUTSIDE
MAKING
OUR MUSIC THERE
WITH A FEW RED LIGHTS
A FEW OLD BEDS
WE MADE A PLACE
TO SWEAT
NO MATTER WHAT
WE GET OUT OF THIS
I KNOW
I KNOW
WE'LL NEVER FORGET
SMOKE ON THE WATER
FIRE IN THE SKY
SMOKE ON THE WATER
