  • 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, a fire in the sky

  • Smoke on the water

  • 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, a fire in the sky

  • Smoke on the water

  • 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, a few old beds

  • We made a place to sweat

  • No matter what we get out of this

  • I know, I know we'll never forget

  • Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky

  • Smoke on the water

We all came out to Montreux
