An Almost Complete Collection of Lyrics, 1972-1988

The Residents: An Almost Complete Collection of Lyrics, 1972-1988 is a book of lyrics by The Residents, edited by Giampiero Bigazzi and Annette Jarvie. It was published by Stampa Alternativa in Italy in August 1989, in two cover art variants. 
The book features a near-complete collection of the group's lyrics from the start of their career in 1972 to the date of the book's compilation in 1988, with Italian translations, and a four chapter historical essay on the group. The book also included a bonus single-sided 7" single featuring an exclusive studio recording of the song "From The Plains to Mexico".
tzoq, the webmaster of long-running fan website RZWeb, acknowledged using the book as a primary resource in compiling lyrics for his website; following RZWeb's closure in 2005, that site's lyrics were integrated into the "Historical" section of The Residents' official website.
