Ween is a rock group formed in 1984 in New Hope, Pennsylvania when Aaron Freeman and Mickey Melchiondo met in a junior high school typing class. The pair became known as Gene and Dean Ween. Thousands of home recordings later, Ween collected a large underground fanbase despite being generally unknown in pop music. Their earliest home recordings were anarchic and free-spirited, drawing on influences as far-reaching as the Beatles, Queen, Prince, Butthole Surfers, The Residents and the lo-fi punk movement. Ween was often compared in their early years to other offbeat artists such as Frank Zappa and would always eschew such comparisons.

Beacon Light Lyrics
Ween
Ween--Beacon Light
Words and music: Ween
Looking up to the sky
Made me realize; made me want to fly
To a place far away
Where they're singing songs and making love all day
Somewhere beyond the sun
Where an adam splits and announces a tongue
CHORUS:
So don't you be late
I see the beacon light and it's on
So strap on my *jammy pack*
Fuel it up, 'cause I'm gone
The people all dance
With their big long arms and a peach in their pants
Picking fruit from the sky
As the demon ship goes passing them by
I'm not sure if it's love
But it's coming down from the heavens above
CHORUS:
So don't you be late
I see the beacon light, and it's on
So strap on that *jammy pack*
Fuel it up, 'cause I'm gone
So don't you be late
I see the beacon light, and it's on
So strap on that *jammy pack*
Fuel it up, 'cause I'm gone
