Ken Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 Above is the Montreaux Casino, the next morning. Smoke On The Water We all came out 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 They burned down the gambling house It died with an awful sound 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 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 and a few old beds We make a place to sweat No matter what we get out of this I know we'll never forget Smoke on the water, fire in the sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 That´s interesting... and amazing for me as I grew up with this song... and I always thought they said "Fire in the sand..." I always learn a lot in SF... Thank you, Ken! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
