Album: Chop Suey Rock, Vol. 2: More Songs About the Orient

You remember me
I used to have a nice Chinese restaurant
People used to come in and eat nice

Used to sell a egg roll
Used to sell a lobster roll
Then they put in a three-piece band
Play nice music

Play the foxtrot
Play the mambo
Now they don't play
They play new

You see
No more egg loll
No more lobster loll
You see, lock and loll
Lock and loll
Everything lock and loll

Hey, stop the music
Stop the music

Boy, make me clazy
The lock and loll
Everybody come in here
Seventeen

Used to have a nice couples come in here
People thirty-five, thirty
Used to sit down, hold hands
Split a bowl of chop suey
Eat a little rice
Was so nice

Now the people come in here
All the same age
Asked a girl the other day
How old are you
She say, seventeen

I said, that's nice
How old your friend
She said, seventeen
I said, how old your mother
She said, seventeen
Your father, seventeen

What's the matter
Everybody seventeen
What happened to eighteen
What happened to nineeen
What happened to twenty
What happened to the other numbers
Stop the music

Oh, make me clazy
The lock and loll
Spoil my kinda customer

Used to have nice people come in
Dressed very crassy
Sometime wear the tuxedo
Girl wear the evening gowns

Wear the cocktail dress
Men come in with a nice sport jacket
Plaid, double-frap in the back

Sometime not too crassy
Only got a single-frap

Get big executive, Madison Avenue
Dressed with a charcoal gray suit
Got a charcoal gray shirt
Charcoal tie, charcoal shoes
Take a look on their hands
Sometimes charcoal hands

I say, Hey, executive
I think you better wash up
Before you eat

Now, evelybody come in
Got a rock and roll suit on
What's that
That's a dungaree suit

I say, why do you wear that dungaree for
Why do you wear that dungaree pants
Why do you wear that dungaree jacket
Why you got that dungaree face
What's that for

Because I'm little dungalee doll
Dungalee doll, dungalee doll
Evelybody here a dungalee doll

You no dungalee doll
You dungalee jerk
You spoil my prace
I said, get outta here

No wanna lock and loll
No wanna dungalee doll
Stop that music

Oh, they make me clazy
Ellybody is a lock and loll
Ellybody is seventeen
Ellybody is a dungalee doll

No egg loll
No lock and roll
Plenty lock and loll

You got a six o'clock lock
You got seven o'clock loll
You got a eight o'clock lock
You got a nine o'clock loll

They never stop the lock
They never stop the loll
They lock alound the clock
And they loll alound the clock
And they lock and they loll
And they loll and they lock

Make me crazy
Don't know what to hock
Getting crazy
The band keep praying
Don't want to stop
I don't care

'Cause they playing my song
The whole night long
Close up the door
Don't close the store

Stay here, all night
And sing that crazy
Rock and loll song

And now come the Chinese beat
