Student Demonstration Time

Time: 3:56 Renewed 1982 Jerry Leiber Music and Mike Stoller Music BMI
Based on Riot in Cell Block Number 9 by Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller
New lyrics by Mike Love

Starting out with Berkeley Free Speech
And later on at People’s Park
The winds of change fanned into flames
Student demonstrations spark
Down to Isla Vista where police felt so harassed
They called the special riot squad of the L. A. County Sheriff

Well there’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Student demonstration time

The violence spread down South to where Jackson State brothers
Learned not to say nasty things about Southern policemen’s mothers
Nothing much was said about it and really next to nothing done
The pen is mightier than the sword, but no match for a gun

Well there’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Well there’s a riot going on
‘Cause it’s student demonstration time

America was stunned on May 4, 1970
When rally turned to riot up at Kent State University
They said the students scared the Guard
Though the troops were battle dressed
Four martyrs earned a new degree
The Bachelor of Bullets
I know we’re all fed up with useless wars and racial strife
But next time there’s a riot, well, you best stay out of sight

Well there’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Well there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration time

Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
It’s student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
It’s student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Student demonstration

Feel Flows

Time: 4:48 Wilojarston Music, Ltd. ASCAP
Carl Wilson/Jack Rieley

Unfolding enveloping missiles of soul
Recall senses sadly
Mirage like soft blue like lanterns below
To light the way gladly
Whether whistling heaven’s clouds disappear
Where the wind withers memory
Whether whiteness whisks soft shadows away
Feel flows (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel goes (Black hot glistening shadowy flows)

Unbending never ending tablets of time
Record all the yearning
Unfearing all appearing message divine
Eases the burning
Whether willing witness waits at my mind
Whether hope dampens memory
Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
Feel flows (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel goes (Black hot glistening shadowy flows)

Encasing all embracing wreath of repose
Engulfs all the senses
Imposing, unclosing thoughts that compose
Retire the fences
Whether wholly heartened life fades away
Whether harps heal the memory
Whether wholly heartened life fades away
Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
Whether whiteness whisks soft shadows away
Feel goes (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel flows (Black hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel goes (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feelings to grow (White hot glistening shadowy flows)

White hot glistening shadowy flows
White hot glistening shadowy flows
White hot glistening shadowy flows
White hot glistening shadowy flows

Looking At Tomorrow (A Welfare Song)

Time: 1:59 Wilojarston Music, Ltd. ASCAP
Alan Jardine/Gary Winfrey

I’ve been laying on my back
Like a freight train off a track
Trying to find a job to fit my trade
With the morning sun come ’round
Well I’ll be covering plenty of ground
And I don’t need nobody to pay my aid
Mmmm pay my aid

Now Bess and me were feeling bad
And all the good jobs they were had
I had to take to sweeping up some floors
Well I don’t mind that so much
Or the changing of my luck
But you know I could be doing so much more

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Bip bip bip bip bip bip bip bip bip bip

Well I’ll be coming home tonight
Everything will be all right
And we’ll be looking at tomorrow
And we’ll be looking at tomorrow

A Day In The Life Of A Tree

Time: 3:09 Brother Publishing Co. BMI
Brian Wilson/Jack Rieley

Feel the wind burn through my skin
The pain, the air is killing me
For years my limbs stretched to the sky
A nest for birds to sit and sing

But now my branches suffer
And my leaves don’t bear the glow
They did so long ago

One day I was full of life
My sap was rich and I was strong
From seed to tree I grew so tall
Through wind and rain I could not fall

But now my branches suffer
and my leaves don’t offer
Poetry to men of song

Trees like me weren’t meant to live
If all this world can give
Pollution and slow death

Oh Lord I lay me down
No life’s left to be found
There’s nothing left for me

Trees like me weren’t meant to live
If all this earth can give
Is pollution

Trees like me weren’t meant to live
(Oh Lord I lay me down)
If all this earth can give
(My branches to the ground)
Is pollution and slow death
(There’s nothing left for me)

Oh Lord I lay me down
My branches to the ground
There’s nothing left for me
There’s nothing left for me

‘Til I Die

Time: 2:37 Brother Publishing Co. BMI
B side with Long Promised Road
Brian Wilson

I’m a cork on the ocean
Floating over the raging sea
How deep is the ocean?
How deep is the ocean?
I lost my way
Hey hey hey

I’m a rock in a landslide
Rolling over the mountainside
How deep is the valley?
How deep is the valley?
It kills my soul
Hey hey hey

I’m a leaf on a windy day
Pretty soon I’ll be blown away
How long will the wind blow?
How long will the wind blow?
Ohhhh

Until I die
Until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die
These things I’ll be until I die

Surf’s Up

Time: 2:37 Brother Publishing Co. BMI
Recorded: 11/8/66 and 12/15/66
Additional recording: 1971
A side with Don’t Go Near The Water
Brian Wilson/Van Dyke Parks

A diamond necklace played the pawn
Hand in hand some drummed along, oh
To a handsome man and baton
A blind class aristocracy
Back through the opera glass you see
The pit and the pendulum drawn
Columnated ruins domino

Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
Are you sleeping?

Hung velvet overtaken me
Dim chandelier awaken me
To a song dissolved in the dawn
The music hall a costly bow
The music all is lost for now
To a muted trumperter swan
Columnated ruins domino

Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
Are you sleeping, Brother John?

Dove nested towers the hour was
Strike the street quicksilver moon
Carriage across the fog
Two-Step to lamp lights cellar tune
The laughs come hard in Auld Lang Syne

The glass was raised, the fired rose
The fullness of the wine, the dim last toasting
While at port adieu or die

A choke of grief heart hardened I
Beyond belief a broken man too tough to cry
Beyond belief a broken man too tough to cry

You’ve got a greenhouse effect on me
I know a secret spot
Paradise by the sea
We’ll find a place to park
That’s kinda cool after dark

We’ll take a trip on up to the lake
Down by the river
Where we can make out
On the island

Wake up on the cape
Punch up yor favorite staion
Toss in your favorite tape
When we go cruisin’
Well everything is all right

Come on let’s cruise ya got nothin’ to lose
Baby when we go cruisin’ now

Baby put your top down
Parade around down town
People trying to cool down
Party all summer long

Come on let’s cruise ya got nothin’ to lose
So come on let’s cruise ya got nothin’ to lose

Baby baby come on
Still cruisin’ after all of these years

Everybody got a favorite spot
Where they like to come a lot

When we go cruisin’ Well everything is all right

Come on let’s cruise ya got nothin’ to lose
Baby when we go crusin’ now

People dancin’ in the sand
Rockin’ to a reggae band
Lovers walkin’ hand in hand
Party all summer long

Come on let’s cruise ya got nothin’ to lose
So come on let’s cruise ya got nothin’ to lose
Baby come on

Now get yourself in gear
Baby baby come on
Still cruisin’ after all of these years

Somewhere Near Japan

Time: ?:?? Phillips-Tucker Music, Inc./Daywin Music, Inc. BMI
Produced by Terry Melcher
Phillips/Terry Melcher/Mike Love/Bruce Johnston

Late last night I got an S. O. S.
The fairy tale girl’s in deep in distress
She says I don’t know where I am
But it’s near Japan

My engine’s all burned out
My crew has all bailed out
I don’t know where I am
But it’s somewhere near Japan

And she said
Rescue me
I’m somewhere in the
China Sea
I think I’m sinkin’ fast
This call is probably my last
I’m throwin’ out a life line
And I’m doin’ it for old time’s sake
Though I know you’re gonna break my heart
One more time

Late last night I got an S. O. S.
The fairy tale girl’s in deep in distress
She says I don’t know where I am
But it’s near Japan

My engine’s all burned out
My crew has all bailed out
I don’t know where I am
But it’s somewhere near Japan

And she said thank you dear
I think she sounded quite sincere
And when she turned to go
She said I crave adventure don’t you know

And now she’s driftin’ on some Chinese junk
Her world is spinning and her hope has sunk
So I close my eyes
And somewhere near Japan
The spinning stopped and the world stood still
I broke her fall and I always will
Strung out in no man’s land
Somewhere near Japan
Rescue me
Rescue me

Alan Jardine

Ray oh ah ha
Ray oh ah ha
Radio ah ha
You know
Ray oh ah ha
Radio ah
I’m gonna make her mine
Bom bom bom ba ba bom bom bom bom

I went to Trinidad I didn’t
Know just what I had ’til I
Found her

She wears a pretty smile
That compliments her shapely
Style and I found her

Island girl she’s oh so pretty
Island girl I like her plenty
Island girl I’m gonna make her mine

Island girl she makes me happy
Island girl she kinda sassy
Island girl I’m gonna make her mine

Everybody’s got an island fantasy
For me it’s like a Caribbean odyssey
All the people live and love there by the sea
Near the sparkling wather ‘neath the coco-palm tree

Island girl she make me happy
Island girl she kinda sassy
Island girl won’t you show me the way

She’s fine so fine all mine
She’s so good to me
And I know (i know) our love (or love) so free (so free)
That it was meant to be

Island girl she make me happy
Island girl she kinda sassy
Island girl won’t you show me the way

She’s a real beauty from the Caribbean
Long dark hair flowin’ in the breeze
She’s the kinda beauty makes you come alive and
We can live together for eternity

Every now and then I get this silly grin
When I’m there in her company
She says I’m crazy that I’m also very lazy
I know she loves me

Island girl she make me happy
Island girl she kinda sassy
Island girl won’t you show me the way
Island girl won’t you show me the way
Island girl won’t you show me the way
Island girl won’t you show me the way

In My Car

Time: ?:?? Beach Bum Music/Beachhead Music, Inc. BMI/ASCAP
Produced by Brian Wilson and Eugene Landy
Brian Wilson/Eugene Landy/Alexandra Morgan

When I’m behind the wheel
Horses of gas and steel
The highway is my home
In fiberglass and chrome
Fantasy car shiny Corvette
Let’s take a ride you can’t forget
Come on pretty lady ride with me

In my car
I’m captain of my destiny
In my car
Pretty babe come cruise with me

Come for a drive
And we’ll arrive
Feelin’ alive

I’m master of my fate
When I accelerate
My new Vette is my throne
When on the road we roam we roam we roam roam
Cruisin’ like we’re in a dream
Feelin’ like we’re still sixteen
Being a part of the great American scene

In my car
I’m captain of my destiny
In my car
Pretty babe come cruise with me

Come for a drive
And we’ll arrive
Feelin’ alive

Cruise cruise cruise with me baby
Now move move up in the stratosphere
Zoom zoom zoom with me darlin’ now
We’re still cruisin’ after all these
Cruisin’ after all these years

Wind blowing in my hair
I feel like a millionaire
Radio is blasting strong
We’re breaking out in song
Blazing trails both near and far
Park my car behind a star
Life is full of possibilities

In my car
I’m captain of my destiny
In my car
Oh pretty babe come cruise with me

Come for a drive
And we’ll arrive
Feelin’ alive

In my car
I’m captain of my destiny
In my car
Oh pretty babe come cruise with me
Oh pretty babe come cruise with me
