“Turn the Light Off”/Pamela’s Intro (Live / 12-10-73 / Show 2)

(Turn off that light! Hey Zappa, tell 'em to turn that light off, man!)
What light? Oh no, we're gonna need it in a moment. You see, in case you hadn't noticed, we are makin' a movie of this and we might like to have you people do something. Ok look, we're not ready to do anything yet with the audience, maybe if they want to be in the dark, turn the light off, ya know? But we'll get 'em later, we'll get 'em.. So, turn off the big light 'n let 'em swoon out there. Hold hands under thе table. Umm, let's see.. Hmm.. What? No, no.. I think uh, just a second, how arе we doing on time? Does anybody know over there? Calm down. How much? Ok, 'cause the last thing we're gonna do is going to make a mess, I'm afraid. So I just wanna make sure we do it at the right time, we- we do have a smoke machine, and a bubble machine. We have some strobe lights, and we have some people who are going to dance on stage, and we may have a regular old time Hollywood dance contest here tonight. And uh, sure it'd be nice if we could get some of you people into it, but it's too soon yet. We'll wait until about, 15 minutes before the end of the show and then we'll, heyy. Trying to think what would be the best thing to play right now, any ideas? Anybody do? Ok, we're going to do "Pygmy Twylyte", ladies and gentlemen. (Huh? Twylyte into uhh.. [?] go right into the tango. No, I'm not kidding. Just hold the last note where you go daa-da-da-daa [?] alright? He's coming soon. [?] Here we go. No, not yet, not yet.)

Oh hey, wait a minute, that is a good idea. Pamela, ladies and gentlemen can you see this girl over here in the, heyy. Ok, Pamela Miller ladies and gentlemen. Now, let me explain something, uh.. Have you ever been in love? Have you ever though of being in love? Well, there's all different kinds of love. Pamela Miller is so much in love, that she's going to demonstrate how much in love that she is by providing a much needed element of- Calm yourself, Pamela.. Hahaha.. That's- that's not exactly in love but just, heheh.. Let go of it for a while, it won't leak. Now, ya know all the big rock 'n roll groups, with the cute people in it, they always have girls who come up on the stage and go, "Ahh-plfft" and all that stuff. Well, we're a little bit hard pressed folks. So, hahaha! So we're going to, uh, stage a low grade, sort of cheap, sort of, um, pseudo mother-mania hysteria event in the middle of this song. Pamela, is going to uh, heheheh, eroticize Napoleon while he sings "Pygmy Twylyte". Ok, here we go!
