I could hide 'neath the wings of the bluebird as she sings. The six o'clock alarm would never ring. But it rings, and I rise, wipe the sleep out of my eyes. The shaving razor's cold, and it stings. Chear up, sleepy Jean, oh, what can it mean to a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?

Saul, he said, "Denny, you know there aren't many who can sing a song the way that you do, let's go." So, Denny says "olly-golly, don't you think that I wish I could play guitar like you?" Saul, Denny, and Sebastian sat at the Night Owl, and after every number, they'd pass the hat. McGuinn and McGuire still getting higher, in L.A. (you know where that's at), and no one's getting fat, except Mama Cass. [First added to this chart: 05/28/2014]

I'm in way over my head. Now she thinks that I love her, because that's what I said, though I never think of her. But what can I do? I'm lonely too, and it makes me feel so good to know she'll never leave me. [First added to this chart: 04/22/2016]

What's your name? Who's your Daddy? Is he rich like me? Has he taken any time to show you what you need to live? Tell it to you slowly? Tell you why I really want to know: it's the time of the season for loving. [First added to this chart: 10/13/2014]

I'm all alone now. No love to shield me. Trapped in a world that's a distorted reality. Happiness you took from me, and left me alone with only memories. Through the mirror of my mind, through these tears that I'm crying, reflects a hurt I can't control, because, although you're gone, I keep holding on to the happy times when you were mine.

This chart is so good. Great albums by Zappa, Jefferson Airplane, Beach Boyd and of course the Beatles.
I love In Search of the Lost Chord. Nice to see it up at #2.
