"I Have Been in You", by Frank Zappa, is the opening song on the 1979 album Sheik Yerbouti.

Zappa's parody was directed at Frampton's change from the earnest musician to teen pop idol, replete with bare chested album cover, and syrupy love ballads. The song is in the same vein as the Mothers of Invention's lampooning of the Beatles with We're Only in It for the Money.
