Dandelion Wine
02:50
|
|
||
Infect my yard with your pretty yellow
Make my skin the color of you
Let the wind blow you to distant places
but you won't get much further
than the next lawn
Float away dandelion
Nothing is real in these strawberry fields
Don Van Vliet smokin stones and beatle bones
Let the wind blow
Let it blow
strawberry dandelions
strawberry butterflies
Strawberry fields forever
Let me buy you for five cents on the street
from an entrepreneur kid and his friends
You'll quench my thirst
You'll be the first
Please baby lemonade

Writer's Block
02:23
|
|
||
I've got writer's block again
It makes me wonder if I can offend
and if so I wanna know where and when
I've got writer's block again
It makes me hate everything
that I did in the past and the present
Oh God send me a muse
And won't you make her extra pretty this time?
And won't you make her promise to be mine?
I live in a mansion owned by Charles Manson
He got a movie contract and didn't know what to do
And he finally got the royalties to the Beach Boys songs he penned
And he needed someone to tend to his garden
Oh God send me a muse
Oh God it gets so lonely in here
Oh God I don't even own this place
Oh God just send me a pretty face

Can I Trust The Walrus?
03:32
|
|
||
I know it's just adolescent lust
that I'm wowie zowie'd
But I need help
and I want to hold her hand
I know it's only pop
It's only words and music
I feel I should do something more
but all I need is love right?
Can I trust the egg man?
Can I trust the walrus?
Goo goo pop muse
Maybe I should poke fun at the war
Or pretend to be alienated
I'll buy my thoughts from a popular store
and become a walking billboard
Cause I'm different
Yes I'm different than them
Oh, I'm so different
My parents just don't understand
Can I trust the egg man?
Can I trust the walrus?
Goo goo pop muse
I think I need some new shoes
How many ways can you sing the blues?
Some say the possibilities are infinite
But infinity can be infinitely boring
Can I trust the egg man?
Can I trust the walrus?
Goo goo pop muse

Clementine
02:55
|
|
||
Oh the sky is falling
Temperature rise
Call it global warming
Now everyone's dying
Oh the sky is falling
Now will you let me
call you my darling?
Clementine
Now that everyone's dying
Or else I'll get around
All over this town
The girls are easy
when the sky's falling down
I'll get around
cause everyone's dying
and none of the girls
want to die alone
Except for Clementine
Oh my darling Clementine

Monogamy
03:10
|
|
||
Love is less than three
Monogamy
A mathematical heart
with double meanings
Love is all we need
Sounds like a lie indeed
When Brian Wilson wrote his best tunes
confined inside his room

Girls Like You
03:18
|
|
||
I wish I was more flitty
because you're so pretty
I wish I was more flitty
because you are so god damn pretty
Maybe my pants aren't tight enough
or maybe my smile's not wide enough
Or maybe I'm in love with something
I can never have
I can only imagine baby
that you feel the way I feel about you
about somebody else
I wish I was more flitty
because you're so pretty
I wish I was more flitty
because you are so god damn pretty
Maybe my TV's not on enough
Or maybe my useless knowledge isn't wide enough
Or maybe I'm in love with something
I can never have
I wish I was more flitty
because I can't seem to get in touch with my emotions
unless no one's around
Girls like you
like guys like me
who are
a little more funny
Girls like you
like guys like me
who have
a little more energy
Girls like you
like guys like me
who uh
tell them everything they want to hear
Girls like you
like guys like me
who are
nothing like me
Come on

I Talk To The Wind
04:27
|
|
||
Oh girl where have you been?
I've been talking to the wind
I know you probably don't know me
but I would like to be your friend
But I am dreadfully shy
so I keep talking to the wind
And I've been whistling through the day
and I've been breathing out the night
The wind doesn't have much to say
I need something else in my life
I've been whistling through the day
and I've been breathing out the night
The wind doesn't have much to say tonight
Oh girl where have you been?
I've been talking to the wind
I know you and you're probably off with him or him or him
so I've been talking to the wind
Oh girl where have you been?
I've been talking to the wind
And I've been whistling through the day
and I've been breathing out the night
The wind doesn't have much to say
I need something else in my life
I've been whistling through the day
and I've been breathing out the night
The wind doesn't have much to say tonight

Little Phony
03:30
|
|

I saw you standing there
the same way you stood
two years ago
I saw you standing there
Oh, the way you make me feel
so low
Little phony
You're making me feel so lonely
Little phony
You make me feel so lonely
Little phony
Dance with your skeleton boneys
Little phony
I want to be your one and only
Maybe you are a wild one
But I can't piece together this life
that I'm running from
I mock everything that I am
I make fun of the ones who are just like me
They are phony
In a real life world
They are phony
In a real life world
They are phony
You're a real life girl
And you're a phony
I could try to be big in the eyes of a girl
But what matters to me is what I could be to this world
If it wasn't full of phonies
If I wasn't so god damn phony
Little phony
You're making me feel so lonely
Little phony
I want to be your one and only

Her Brain
03:33
|
|
||
I'm the boy who hates the world
the one who never gets the girl
the one who's always in love
even though it's not really there
I'm the boy who feels heartache
when it's unnecessary
The one who sleeps inside his room
writing poems to express his gloom
And it gets so lonely in here
sometimes I feel so low
If only she knew I was in love with her image
I don't care about her brain
She's the girl who gets the world
of sex, drugs, and rock and roll
The one who's never in love
even though it's always all about her
She's the one who feels heartache
when it's unnecessary
The one who sleeps in other rooms
because home is never quite enough
Don't need her for intellectual stimulation
I want her for something else
I've got books for the other
She knows how to drive me insane
I'd talk to her but I don't care about her brain
She thinks she's not the same
What's new?
She thinks she knows real pain
Woo hoo
She thinks she's not the same
but she most certainly is
But I don't care about her brain anyway
There's only room for one love in my life
And I'm in love with myself

Loan Investor

I've already given up on love
and I'm not very old
I've already given up on love
I'm glad it didn't take me til I got old
I've already given up on love
I'm sick of doing what I'm told
I've already given up on love
Now I think I'll give up on girls
No, I'm not turning queer
I wish it was that easy
No, I'm not turning queer
I just don't have that in me
I've already given up on rock
with its screams and its pretentiousness
I've already given up on pop
with its predictable chord arrangements
I've already given up on fame
I know it's all so lame
I've already given up on rock and roll
I think I'll give up on music
No I'm not getting famous
No I ain't no sellout
I'm much too proud
of something that nobody wants
No I'm not getting famous
I ain't no sellout
I'm much too proud
of something I shouldn't be
proud of
Why are you so proud
of your investment in your self?
Nobody wants to buy your stock
Cause you can't convince them
that they need what you've got
Why are you so proud
of your investment in your self?
You're a lone investor you're alone
You're a loan investor you're a loan
And America's in debt
and you're just following suit
If the country is in debt
Why not you?
You're a lone investor you're a lone
You're a loan investor you're a loan

Smoke
02:07
|
|

I like the girls all full of smoke
because it always leaves them broke
even though a million tons of soot
killed my aunt and others too
I like the girls all full of smoke
because it lets me know they think life's a joke
even though a million tons of soot
killed my aunt and others too
Everybody's dying nowadays
I like the girls who play with knives
The ones who threaten to take their lives
Although they probably wouldn't make good mothers
They still might make good wives
I like the girls who play with knives
Oh they make me feel so alive
Although they probably wouldn't make good mothers
They're set to die before they're twenty five
Everybody wants to die before they're twenty five
Everybody wants to die

Getting Older
02:38
|
|
||
You can always sing about when you were younger
cause you're getting older all the time
I don't know where my minds go
It's not the same one I had before
What will I think of me when I'm older?
I'm getting older all the time
What will I think of me when I'm older?
Like in thirty years time
I don't know where the years go
Time is not tangible
You go to sleep
to be anything you weren't the night before
You go to sleep
to be anything but what you were the night before
You go to sleep
To dream about anything
You go to sleep
To wake up in the morning

Dreams
03:05
|
|
||
They'll fill your head up with dreams
and nightmares too
Evil prevails in the thoughts of youth
heroism
slay the dragon
Do you know why I stopped going to the shows?
Cause I was bored out of my mind
I wanted to have the mind of a children
to get my head off of all of these problems
even though they're not much of anything
Do you know why I started doing the drugs?
Cause I was bored out of my mind
The Beatles did em too
The Beach Boys did em too
The Captain did em too
and so did the Stones
Syd Barrett did em too
King Crimson did em too
Your heroes did em too
Except for maybe a few
