Frank Vincent Zappa (December 21, 1940 – December 4, 1993) was an American composer, singer-songwriter, electric guitarist, recording engineer, record producer and film director. In a career spanning more than 30 years, Zappa wrote rock, jazz, orchestral and musique concrète works. He also directed feature-length films and music videos, and designed album covers. Zappa produced almost all of the more than 60 albums he released with the band The Mothers of Invention and as a solo artist. While in his teens, he acquired a taste for percussion-based avant-garde composers such as Edgard Varèse and 1950s rhythm and blues music. He began writing classical music in high school, while at the same time playing drums in rhythm and blues bands; he later switched to electric guitar.
He was a self-taught composer and performer, and his diverse musical influences led him to create music that was often impossible to categorize. His 1966 debut album with The Mothers of Invention, Freak Out!, combined songs in conventional rock and roll format with collective improvisations and studio-generated sound collages. His later albums shared this eclectic and experimental approach, irrespective of whether the fundamental format was one of rock, jazz or classical. His lyrics—often humorously—reflected his iconoclastic view of established social and political processes, structures and movements. He was a strident critic of mainstream education and organized religion, and a forthright and passionate advocate for freedom of speech, self-education, political participation and the abolition of censorship.

Seldom the wind blows thoughts of refrain
As long as I'm nimble I'll locate your name
It powers my shield whilst I'm on my way
This love is simple nourishment for soul
Distance will strengthen until it's you I hold
Make yourself seen in my heart until your home
{ Chrous }
Verbalise how I feel when I'm with you
Centralise all energy til I get through
Til I get through til I get through til I get through
Mission near over goal is coming through
Can I see her until I break the news
Make yourself seen in your heart until I'm through
{ Chrous }
Verbalise how I feel when I'm with you
Centralise all energy til I get through
Til I get through til I get through til I get through
Moons will come and moons will go
Still there is you and I
Moons will come and moons will go
Still there is you and I
Singin singin
Verbalise how I feel when I'm with you
Centralise all energy til I get through
