I met les when I was working at a golf course when i was a teenager. He left the hitting range when it started to drizzle. I happened to have my frettless bass in my truck because I was going out of town. He waited in the rain for me to run and grab it, then he autographed it. My childhood hero jammed on my instrument in the rain for just me.

[@ericminton6084]

he is known for doing lyrics super fast. You'd probably need to find the lyrics to follow what he is saying. You should check Winona's Big Brown Beaver and My Name Is Mud

[@affectingmandela9839]

Les Claypool, the vocalist and bass player, is arguably the best best player of our time. Many argue that he is disqualified because he plays bass like it's a lead guitar. Also, this is one of those songs that is purely for the fans, not to necessarily be understood by casuals lol. But in retrospect, Les is probably the go to for bass for everyone's dream lineup. Also, I recommend the actual video of Winona's Big Brown Beaver.........yeah.

[@johnhill8877]

[@theadeptuscustodian8157]

Frank Zappa once said a good bassist is just a displaced lead guitarist.

[@r0yals1n37]

lead guitar players play worse than the bassists but think theyre so good bc they play a higher pitched instrument so the fact that les plays bass like lead guitar is basically saying that lead guitar is fuckin irrelevant

Lyrics Well, I remember as it were a meal ago... Said Tommy the Cat as he reeled back to clear whatever foreign matter, May have nestled its way into his mighty throat. Many a fat alley rat had met its demise while staring point blank down, The cavernous barrel of this awesome prowling machine. Truly a wonder of nature this urban predator. Tommy the cat had many a story to tell But it was a rare occasion such as this that he did... "She came slidin' down the alleyway like butter drippin' off a hot biscuit. The aroma, the mean scent, was enough to arouse suspicion in even the, Oldest of Tigers that hung around the hot spot in those days. The sight was beyond belief. Many a head snapped for double - even triple - takes as this vivacious, Feline made her her way into the delta of the alleyway, Where the most virile of the young tabbies were known to hang out. They hung in droves. Such a multitude of masculinity could only be Found in one place... And that was O'Malley's Alley... The air was thick with cat calls, But not even a muscle in her neck did, twitch as she sauntered straight into the heart of the alleyway. She knew what she wanted... She was lookin' for that stud bull. She was looking for that THE cat. And that was me. Tommy the Cat is my name. And I say unto thee... 'Say baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side? Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby?...Say baby?' (Break) 'Say baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side? Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby?...Say baby?' 'Say baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side? Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say babababay?' 'Say baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side? Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby?...Say baby?'" 'Say baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side? Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby?...Say baby?'" 'Say baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side? Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby?...Say baby?'" 'Say baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side? Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me? Say baby?... Say babyyyyyy!!!!???"

"The look like a bunch of dads" I mean they've been playing for 20+ years they definitely weren't that old when this song came out xD

I love how whenever the crowd would join in, you looked positively angry, like the entire Bonarroo crowd was doing it just to prank you personally. Thanks for the laugh.

[@gwalla]

Everybody always requests reactions to the Bonnaroo performance of this tune and it's a good version but if you haven't heard the album version before it's impossible to understand the lyrics. It's literally about an alley cat, and after the opening narration it's sung from his perspective (on the album Tommy's lines are delivered by the great Tom Waits, while Les Claypool only does the narration and the final chorus).

The audience didn’t research the lyrics in Google. They, like me, have been listening to Primus since 1993 and know every word by heart. Yes you can Google the lyrics, and yes they are indeed about a cat. Yes, Les is extremely talking fast over his virtuosic bass slappery- but if you listen closely the song is indeed about a very randy Tom Cat. Listen to the studio version from Seas of Cheese. The lyrics come through clearer than the live version. Also they are sung by the raspy voice singer Tom Waits.

I saw these guys numerous times about twenty five years ago, in little punk venues to more mainstream clubs. After a decade dominated by bands like Motley Crue, Guns N Roses etc, these guys were absolutely unique. There was nothing like them at the time and there hasn’t been since. Just pure, goofy, fun punk/funk/experimental atonal art rock jam band. They are definitely an acquired taste, but we’re a good antidote to hair metal.

[@MrRezRising]

Extremely well put. I spent every one of my teenage years in the 80s, ODing on any and all music bc I was learning to drum. By the 90s, hair bands...we were so over it. Primus's appearence on the scene was profound. I chose to hang with their music over the grunge scene that Nirvana's sucess created. Long live the oddball artists who remind us not everything spilling out from your speakers has to be a steady, syrupy flow of mediocrity.

They could've at least had you hear the album version. The song is supposed to be sung by two people. The narrator and the cat. Primus and more specifically Les Claypool invented their own genre of music, Claypool developed his own instrument and playing style unique to him. They have had a massive following since the early 90s and it's well deserved. They are definitely an acquired taste but are extremely talented and unique. Obviously with a theatrical flair.

The song is being played a lot faster than the studio recording... You can hear the lyrics better and any fan knows what's going on, no Google needed. Part of the charm of this band is seeing how ridiculously fast they can play their songs live. Go to one of their shows and it'll be the most fun you've ever had at a concert, especially if you're in that bouncing, moshing mob!! The first time I saw them, in Tijuana back in 1990, it was insane to say the least and is hands down one of my most favorite-est show of all time, and I've seen a lot of shows. And they were an incredible band long before they had their dad look, so no they weren't a bunch of dads that got together to form a band. Say baby do you wanna lay down with me, Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side, A- baby do you wanna lay down with me, Say baby, SAY BABY!!!

"gibberish" Welcome to real music by real talented musicians! You have a long way to go. I never researched the lyrics on google because when I listened to it in 1995, there was no google. I had the CD pamphlet for that. If you listen to the album song and mot the live, you'd get the lyrics.

we've been listening to primus and going to their concerts since before you were born. that's HOW we know the lyrics. the web wasn't even around when this song came out! 😂

"I don't get it". Yup, that's one way to define Primus in a sentece

[@CanadianPunker62]

lol, the entire audience did not research it on google and they weren't a bunch of old dads when the song first came out on their album Sailing the Seas of Cheese in 1991. They were in their late 20s when they released that album and this concert is years later so the fans at this concert are already very familiar with the song

By the time this was filmed this song was years and years old. He’s been doing this sense he was a teenager
