This song is a cover that Primus did of The Residents song
Constantinople. It was origan*lly played by Primus live and was
then put on the single cds of some of their songs. It was recently
released as a bonus trackon the remastered version of their second
Cd, Frizzle Fry. I'm not sure whether les uses a four string or a six
string - or a fretted or fretless bass. I have a 5 string fretless,
and this seems to sound perfect :
(the notes are tapped on the fretboard)
1I - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - (see comment below)- - - - -

3I - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

After you play the first part 4 times the guitar comes in and
when it does you continue to play the same pattern - and
with your right hand you tap from somewhere around the
12th fret up to the last fret on the first string (12- - -21?)
and then start back at 12 again. You play it with the added
notes about 4 times also.

I'm sorry If I got the number of times you play a not or verse wrong or
something, because I'm not infront of my stereo, I'm just infront of my bass.
