Big Baboons
"Big Baboons" is a song by Ween, thought to be originally from the early, lost album Wad. It was later made available on the Boognish Rising Thanksgiving 2014 Sampler. It can also be found on the Boognish Rising Christmas 2013 Sampler.
"Big Baboons" is known to have been played live at least once at an unknown date in early 1989.[1][2] It is possible it was played more often, as many shows from this early era are now lost.
Lyrics[edit | edit source]
Sometimes when I'm alone
And thinking about myself
I go to the phone
And call someone else
The human is not at home
She's warping past the moon
Well I think I'll go insane
And become a big baboon
Big baboons don't worry about the weather
Oh, I said
Big baboons don't worry about the time
I have baboon friend named Freddy
He's a, he's a good friend of mine
Take it Dean
Well, Freddy likes to eat fruit
And chew upon the vines
He doesn't wear a suit
And he doesn't do lines
He's just a baboon
Unlike you and me
He's got ears and he's got a tail, well
He can even see
Big baboons don't worry about the weather
I said, I said, I said, I said
Big baboons don't worry about the time
I have a baboon friend named Freddy
He's a good friend of mine
