Monkee's Theme

Pleasant Valley Sunday
The Monkees
Your local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn this song
To serenade the weekend squire
Just came out to mow his lawn
Another pleasant valley sunday
Charcoal burnin everywhere
Rows of houses that are all the same
And no one seems to care
See Mrs. Gray she's proud today
Because her roses are in bloom
And Mr. Green he's so serene
He's got a TV in every room
Another pleasant valley sunday
Here in status symbol land
Mothers complain
About how hard life is
And the kids just don't understand
Creature comfort goals

The Girl I Knew Somewhere

You tell me that youve never been this way before.
You tell me things I know that Ive heard somewhere.
Youre standing in the places and youre
Staring down through faces, that bring to mind traces
Of a girl, a girl that I knew somewhere.
I just cant put my finger on what it is
That says to me watch out! dont believe her.
I cant give any reasons girl,
My thoughts are bound down in a whirl.
I just cant think who in the world was that girl;
I know I met her somewhere.
Someway, somehow this same thing was done.
Someone, somewhere did me this same wrong.
Well, goodbye dear, I just cant take this chance again.
My fingers are still burning from the last time.
And if your love was not a game, I only have myself to blame.
Thats as may be, I cant explain.
Just ask the girl that I knew somewhere.

Dandruff?

Daily Nightly"
by Mike Nesmith
Dark and rolling figures move
Through prisms of no color.
Hand in hand they walk the night
But never know each other.
Passion passed in neon lights
Light up the jewelled traveler,
Lost in scenes of smoke-filled dreams
Find questions
but no answer.
Startled eyes that sometimes see
Phantasmagoric splendor
Pirouette down palmsied paths,
With pennies for the vendor.
Salvation tears [???] but just in time
It takes to pay the dancer.
Once again, such anxious men
Find questions
but no answers.

D.w. Washburn

Lead vocal: micky dolenz
Produced by: the monkees
D.w. washburn, i heard a sweet voice say.
D.w. washburn, this is your lucky day.
A hot bowl of soup is waitin'.
A hot bowl of soup and a shave.
D.w. washburn, we picked you to say.
Can't you hear the bugle call? can't you hear the bells?
Even you can be reborn, you naughty
If you don't get out of that gutter,
Before the next big rain.
D.w. wahsburn, you're gonna wash right down the drain.
Up, up, come on get up off your street.
If you can only make it from your hands to your knees,
I know you can make it to your feet. wooah!
D.w. washburn, i said to myself.
D.w. washburn, why don't you go save sombody else?
Well, i got no job to go to.
I don't work and i don't get paid.
I got a bottle of wine, i'm feelin' fine.
