After Frank Zappa's death, the world was in shock
His music, his wit, a hard act to flock
But his legacy lived on, in the hearts of his fans
Who remembered him, with love and a glance
On the Mistery Stage, young bands played
Inspired by Frank Zappa, they made their own way
They played on the Big Main Stage too
Following in the footsteps, of what he'd been through
At the rennbahn, a Watermelon In Easter Hay
Was played, in honor of Frank Zappa's way
The puppets Exhibition, paid tribute as well
To the man who played, with a clever sell
Frank Zappa was an autodidact, a man of his own
He played his music, all alone
But his influence spread, far and wide
Inspiring musicians, from every side
The Molli train, carried his music too
To all the corners, of what we knew
Even the heavy metal bands, were inspired
By Frank Zappa's music, that never tired
Hot Rats and Warm up, were played on repeat
In honor of Frank Zappa, a man so sweet
The Statue Of Liberty, shone bright that night
In memory of Frank Zappa, a man of might
At the zappanale, fans gathered round
To pay their respects, to the man they'd found
If Zappa raised his head, they knew he'd be proud
Of the impact he had, on the music crowd
Frank Zappa may be gone, but his music lives on
Inspiring new bands, to sing their own song
He was misunderstood, but he always advanced
The money and did what he wanted, with a flourish so grand
And so, Frank Zappa's legacy lives on
Inspiring new musicians, until dawn
His music, his wit, a hard act to follow
But his fans will always, be here to swallow
The memory of Frank Zappa, a man so great
Who left behind a legacy, we'll never erase.
