Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch is an album by Frank Zappa, released in May 1982 and digitally remastered in 1991. It features five tracks composed by Zappa, and one song, "Valley Girl", co-written by Moon Unit Zappa, his daughter. Moon Unit also sings on that song. The album was reissued on May 2 1995, along with Zappa's entire catalogue.
The cover art for the album shows the classic Droodle (from which the album gets its name), whose shapes also suggest the letters 'ZA', as in 'Zappa'.
