Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band - Frownland Lyrics
My smile is stuck
I cannot go back to your Frownland
My spirit's made up of the ocean and the sky
And the sun and the moon
And all my eyes can see
I cannot go back to your land of gloom
Where black jagged shadows
Remind me of the coming of your doom
I want my own land
Take my hand and come with me
It's not too late for you, it is not too late for me
To find my homeland
Where a man can stand by another man
And no one dying by an earthly hand
Let the devil burn and the beggar learn
And the little girls that live in those old worlds
Take my kind hand
My smile is stuck
I cannot go back to your Frownland
I cannot go back to your Frownland

Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band Frownland Comments
The first 15 seconds got me hooked. Something about that riff is just so fresh. As for the rest... Well i guess at that point I was on for the ride.
this is good musak
What in god’s name is this...
Damn lmaoooo I got this album when I was weep 14-15
I'm 29 now and I'm thinking to myself "no wondering didn't have any friends"
I was most definitely way ahead of there time!
"You think your job is hard, man? I gotta sing to this shit" - Captain Beefhart
BEST. COMMENT. SECTION. EVER!
This is more art than music. This is like the opposite of music
the isntrunmets
fuck off
@Loganmeme1986 gay
the instruments sound like wfeuihonjrwegfiuohbngrweiuohngwershiuo;jnger o;ihujnwregso;uihnwesgrouhij;nrsegw;ojnhuilkregf
I don’t know why but I like this, It sounds chaotic and the vocals is hard to explain but I like it
Let’s see if I like to rest of it
I cannot go back to your frownland!
You know when the lead singer messes up, and the band slowly stops playing while debating whether they should keep going or not? That's what the entire song sounds like.
Loving the new deathgrips album
I play this immediately as loud as i can stand when stopped next to old people with their windows down at a stoplight... ya honza by zappa works well too
Before you know it, the song is done and you just have to play again so it can simply make no more sense. Pure genius.
The fact that so many books still name Trout Mask Replica "the greatest or most significant or most influential" Scarufficore album ever only tells you how far Scarufficore still is from becoming a serious art. Pitchfork readers have long recognized that the greatest Pitchforkcore albums of all times are Kid A and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Rolling Stone readers rank the highly controversial Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Scaruffi readers are still blinded by best-of lists: Trout Mask Replica was listed higher than everyone else (not true, by the way), therefore it must have been the greatest. Pitchfork readers grow up listening to a lot of Pitchforkcore of the past, Robert Christgau readers grow up listening to a lot of Christgaucore of the past. Scaruffi readers are often totally ignorant of the Scarufficore of the past, they barely know the highest rankers. No wonder they will think that Captain Beefheart did anything worth of being saved.
If they could play it note for note....twice...then they are geniuses
Tried headbanging to this.Where is my head?
I unironically blast this thing
This song invokes the same feelings in me as when I look at Picasso's Weeping Woman.

0:41 Vitas - 7th element
I am just hearing this for the first time in my life and just about shitting myself laughing at the comments. Thanks everyone!
don found a formula its not that hard to do really but takes discipline like normal musiclol
lol Anthony that's a good analogy
how my discord voice chat be sounding like
Gucci Gang in the 60s
BEAUTIFUL
My brain during an exam when I am trying so hard to concentrate.
oooh now I get it.
the joke is that they can't play
I got a challenge, try to make this song more organized and see if it could rival the original, chances are, it won't. this song is too perfect
This is how I feel inside
lol Anthony your right but those 199 dollar yamahas play like a 2000 dollar martin I make a killing from guitar center just feel like sometimes I may not get out of there with my mindlol
this sounds like a Joe Biden speech
I think the singer is singing from his fish voice..
"Category: Music" hottest takes of all time.
I like this. I can listen to this
Discount ween
this is true devil music
Sound like shit don’t know why I’m here
When you leave a toxic relationship and the last bit of hurt exits stage left and your confidence creeps back.
Is this math rock
This song is at once dated, of it's time, and ahead of it's time
This is an incredibly layered composition full of subtle instrumentation and multifaceted tonal nuances that only sophisticated ears can fullyBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHITSTILLSOUNDSLIKEGARBAGE
Getting The Mollusk vibes.
Still better than the Shaggs...
Is everyone here from the needle drop?
É o roqueiro que mais me dá prazer de ouvir
Just what ya.need when doing windowpane...or so I've heard. Daughter DAUGHTER don't you dare! Oh mama who cares its the blimp its the blimp!
Absolutely amazing😍
If I don't get this in the next twenty years it'll be too late. I am 60.
Velvet Underground: WTF did they do to that banana.
This sounds like he got a whole bunch of 12 year olds who has been playing they're instruments for a year and wrote a different song for each instrument and handed it to them and told them to play it. Some might say stupid others might say genius all up to the person
Considering this is rehearsed and they played it live I'd say genius.
my brain can't comprehend this
At some point you gotta accept that just because it's unique music doesn't mean it's good music.
Probably the only nearly listenable song by Van Vliet.
Real phycsdelic rock , none of that pussy greatfull dead or pink floyd bullshit!
This isn't really psychedelic
blaine thompson Cringe comment
Beauty among music.
This is the musical equivalent of a Trump speech.
Awesome! I just saw this in a documentary a couple weeks ago and ever since the various instrumental parts have been drifting in and out of my consciousness, curiously clear & cleverly cleft!
This sounds like a stroke
I dunno about you, but this is catchy.
I force myself to listen to this because it makes me seem smart. I have no idea why though.
Lips!
this album smells like fart and weed
still better than Tekashi69
This is the musical equivalent of a migraine
In b4 buffcorrell covers this
This is objectively bad and anybody who denies is pretentious
"Objectively"
Stop using that word.
You obviously have no idea how to use it.
Eric
Ok boomer
they made it bad on purpose
Would I rather listen to _this_
or
_this:_ https://youtu.be/XaFhfPT1ev0
L00PdeL00P The latter
When you use swing on your fl studio beat
Music to my ears
Wow they really sold out. Smh. They were so good before this garbage pop music
Animal Collective were crazy for this one
This is the musical equivalent of going down after sniffing cocaine
This sounds exactly like how it feels to have a panic attack.
One of the most heartfelt songs on the album. "Steal Softly Through Sunshine" has its black paper between a mirror breaking our hearts, and who hasn't woke up in vomit and beer in a banana bin? But for those of us whose smile is indeed stuck, we really can't go back to your Frownland. The Captain was absolutely right.
I play this whenever I'm having a bad day. Makes me laugh every times
music that makes you poop 2.0
This was our wedding song, 25 years and it still stays interesting!
This is what you blast on a roadtrip so you don't fall asleep while driving.
This is the best Kid Rock song.
They are like the bjork of rock and roll.
Rage Fist Bjork is far better than Beefheart
"If there has been anything in the history of popular music which could be described as a work of art in a way that people who are involved in other areas of art would understand, then Trout Mask Replica is probably that work" - John Peel
I was fascinated when someone quoted this. 100% true.
It sounds like a beat swap video gone wrong
I keep getting lost and forgetting I'm listening to a song
Longest 60 seconds of the day so far
The look on my dogs face is friggin' priceless
Bts found dead in a ditch
order in chaos
this song is how it feels when my dad hits me, but it hurts me more emotionally.
imagine listening to this in mono.
The only album that is simultaneously a 1/10 and a 10/10
Three different songs playing at once. So brilliant.
this album manages to be both absolutely fucking unbearable and a magnum opus of the music industry
I NEED to make an album like this one one day. Song titles I came up with are: “Mentally Retarded Buttercream Sauce”, “Dildo Splangboob”, and “Tom Brady Commits Suicide”.
still better than despacito
Beefhearts mission, make the most forgetable non melodic music on earth. He succeded and his bank account suffered for it.
when your 3 year old brother picks up your guitar
At some point, something just CLICKS and you go from hating this song to loving it.
When you realise that it’s basically three different songs (two instrumental, one vocal) played at the same time, you realise the sound is a feature, not a bug.
It’s the musical equivalent of Dadaist art.
This is pretty good
